Summer

Got kinda obsessed with 24 Songs by Playboi Carti so I decided to make an edit with it. Tried to make something that was primarily textual with an absence of explicit human representation.

Jeffree Star Halloween Adventure. Met so many adoring fans this October, what a treat!

Developed a rollei retro 400 roll from around a year ago, thought these ones were nice.

God I love this country

First printing of the ‘Other worlds’ photo book. Along with the 10 photos shown on my instagram this book has an additional 30 new images printed on high quality coated paper. I’m going to be selling these for $45 dollars each, printed on demand. If you’re interested in a copy shoot me a DM.

'Other Worlds' A mashup of iPhone and 35mm photography that I've been collecting for the past year. This project has me excited about photography for the first time in over a year. My eventual goal is to create a photobook, maybe even a series, but we'll see how that pans out. Instagram kinda ruins the photo quality so I'll try and upload the HQ versions to my website.

LA Vlog Spent the last week compiling clips from 15 different "LA Travel vlogs." The more of them I watched the more they began to blend together. Song - 傀儡謡_怨恨みて散る

‘Choice’ Multi-media installation piece When I was laying in bed waiting for the ambulance all I could think about was how fragile my body was. Over the course of a day I had lost my ability to breath. How could something so drastic take place so suddenly, what decision had I made that led me here? This piece is a response to that feeling. The necessity for choice and the fear of choice. Will you make the right choice?

'What are you looking at?' This series was focused on the voyeuristic nature of photography. The viewers perverse gaze is observed by the subjects and denied. When confronted in this way, we the viewer, reflect back on ourselves. "Why were we looking in the first place?"

'Take my breath away' This is an attempt to visualize my internal experience of growing up in the 2000s, a decade which began with so much excitement.

"People pleasing" A series of self portraits that I shot in digital in my living room. There's also going to a brief video component that I'll post on my youtube channel later today. I wanted to try and visualize the variety of feelings that I've been experiencing as a result of being in a new environment. This was also my first time using Photoshop so that was kinda fun.
