Filmed at his Bushwick studio in 2017, artist Meer Musa shares some insight behind his creative process and what inspires him to make art. Meer is fascinated by people and nature. He loves to reproduce them in his paintings and drawings. He uses videos and animations as further mediums for him to explore, as they gives him freedom to express his creative nature. In the Human Spirit paintings, Meer created a combination of people and nature to express his understanding of the interconnections between the two—the philosophy that all things coexist and we are all one. He believes all conscious beings are interconnected directly or indirectly.
