I photograph the Earth and its inhabitants, sieve through the photos to extract their encapsulated raw storyblocks, and share the results in the medium of pixels under glass

ON THE LEDGE OF REALIZATION

hanging loose but collected, with an aura of curiosity brightening the clouded judgement that is doused in the opposites of light and shadow

Whenever I grab a metaphor, everything looks like a nail. Lines are the ideal use case: where there is a journey, a change of state, there is a point A and point B. How do you get someplace you want to be without knowing what it looks like?

A REFLECTION IN SHADOW

Always follow your doctor's advice when planning to lurk in the shadows for prolonged periods of time. Wear shadowglasses to protect your eyes from the blinding darkness.

At Hot, we stand by our phones day and night. The sign by the water cooler said “No missed calls.” Another sign said “No rotary dials.” Still, my first day on the job I brought my model 500. Big mistake. After 2 hours I already had to put my index finger on ice. #photography

Instructions were followed to the letter. It was ten past eight, pitch dark except for an insufficient couple of streetlights, and she stood right in the middle of the third square by the door. #photography

ALLEGORY OF THE CAVE-IN #photography

Keep steady as you step inside: it's dark and the stones are slippery wet. Like a moth to a flame, look for the light and then walk, walk, walk. Do not repeat Orpheus' mistake, even as the goosebumps on your back whisper to you that the cave is watching.

I’ve spent the last few months working on my GPT (General Purpose Typographer). It’s finally fully operational. #photography

HESITITILLATION (at the entrance) #photography

The sun was almost done for the day. I was given a post-it note by an unremarkable figure smoking in an alleyway. It had four words scribbled on it: BE HONEST TO YOURSELF.

in the darkest of the night a portal opens

beaming bright, beautiful,

bereft of all darkness,

bespoke for you

we are set on a collision course, about to stumble into each other in the uncertainty of the night due to an unexpectedly mutual interest in scrolling through a New Yorker article about a great sandwich place on our way to the aforementioned place to grab something for dinner #photography

I've spotted the unexpected brushstroke of red in the midst of my paradise of leafy greens from the window. I've read the note you placed under the terracotta bowl of red begonias and I accept the invitation. #photography

LES CASCADEURS, CASCADING DOWN

the air is getting crisper and the forest is relentlessly raining its magic gold that crunches under your every step

LIMINAL DIVISION, TURBULENT FLOW

boundaries and thresholds, enticing as you slow down and debate which way to go, getting used to the discomfort of staying on the edge instead of leaping off into a whirlpool of possibilities
