About the art
Artist statement
Life is Good
Gigi Ocampo creates a monochromatic portrait using charcoal and thread. The woman gazes directly at her viewer with tangible strength and grit. “This is all about perseverance and hope,” says Gigi. “Every day a person helps herself to recover from difficult and painful experiences that drain her body, mind, and spirit. She fixes her broken self hoping that at the end of the journey everything will be fine. She recites the mantra that life is good just to convince herself that another day is worth living.”
