Artist Statement
"I am Connor Daly, a future holder of a Bachelors of Applied Science in Digital Media.
As a versatile visual artist, I am most passionate about photography, graphic design, and video/audio editing. My primary motivation is to create educational works that benefit children, non-profit organizations, and animal welfare causes. While self-expression is central to my creative process, I aim for my work to inspire and drive positive change on a global scale - particularly in areas like nature preservation and animal welfare. Ultimately, I strive for my work to speak for itself, motivating and empowering others to take action on critical social and environmental issues.
As a visual artist, my photographs aim to captivate viewers, prompting them to pause and reflect. I strive to transport them, even momentarily, from the stresses of daily life, enabling them to appreciate the serene beauty of a Miami Beach sunset or the grandeur of the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. It is my goal for viewers to viscerally experience my artwork, as if they can almost smell the burger in the photograph. Utilizing Adobe Creative Cloud, Canva, WordPress, and Krita, I work to craft visuals that inspire the next generation, revealing the wonders of the world within their reach.
As an audio editor, my goal is to create immersive soundscapes that transport listeners to different eras and evoke profound emotional responses. Through my work, I aim to inspire audiences to pursue their aspirations and experience the same exhilaration and fulfillment that I do.
Ultimately, my objective is to empower my viewers and listeners to realize their own dreams and ambitions."
