Marissa Watson is a 20-year Indo-Guyanese art student who attends York University. She is an emerging artist born and raised in Toronto who wants to explore and dive deeper into the visual arts and share a piece of the world she views with others to experience and find significance in. Marissa works in realistic and painterly art styles and uses abstraction and texture to give her work smaller eye-catching moments for the viewer to fall into and find passion.@Mars.artworld
“Shower Thoughts” is a piece that explores an intimate moment where the mind drifts away and brings it into a version where the viewer can see how deeply the mind can wander while alone with our thoughts. A peaceful moment in time is curated to look like a window being opened that leads into the mind while the person behind the curtains is showering. This artwork symbolizes the peace that comes with being by oneself and how moments like these can blossom new ideas that clear our minds from the fog of everyday life.
