Hi, friend. A few Personal thoughts.
(From my perspective of a photographer / artist)
Ever since I knew myself, I’ve been living with mental & emotional intensity during most of my existence. Waves of thoughts and emotions smashing into every inch of my being, between different episodes of my life.
Writing and photography are two certain ways I calm the storm with, and they’re in the same time personal tools that help me access universal love for existence. On this soul state I am nurturing through them, I try to create carefully thought-out representations of life.
I’ve been a student of visual aesthetics, moreover, a student of the human spirit, my entire existence.
I’ve never settled yet and perhaps never will, discovering or rediscovering nuggets of wisdom from the books I read, the content I consume, or from the people I come across with. Every opportunity to meet someone new, feels like a chance for me to hear a beautiful story, and to offer a piece of my mind and soul to the people I exchange moments with.
I see us, conscious beings, as receivers of the present moment, just as it is and just as it happens, whether we accept or resist its grasp.
Between the A and B’s of our goals, beyond laws, faith, politics and all of society's structures, between birth and death, and before all of the stories we will inevitably become part of, life happens here and now.
I am building a collection of such 'here-and-now's from my past and present that I happen to accept and cherish, no matter if they brought joy or if they hurt; a collection of faces, places, motions and emotions, meant to help me artistically take a bow. I’m taking a large, humble bow down to God, hopefully also gifting you something to gaze at or think about in the process.
Even if we never meet, but you happen to come across some of my thoughts or images, I am grateful for your attention, no matter if it lasts for only a brief moment. Because, in the end, our attention and these moments are the most certain thing we share with each other. Thank you! 💙
Yours truly,
