My personal favourites
My fav poem: Lust for Life
This is a poem of youth. It feels like everything all at once, all the time… But then again, it’s just a feeling.
My fav drawing: Bartender
I was volunteering at a hostel in Barcelona as a night-shifter. And alcohol was part of the game, as I created art on my long and lonely shifts at the reception desk.
My fav occupation: the unknown.
Just one day wandered off into the faraway unknown; turned off my phone, didn’t talk about my one-way ticket. I just went.
Fav quote: “Life into a work of Art”
Indeed, this wording was tinkered and re-imagined many times by many bygone minds. And it landed in me once. I scribbled it down into my notebook like a sewn figure, then had it tattooed on my shoulder.
That one place in Andalucia.
Just joining a friend’s landlord driving us to wherever, and we came to this place, Abla. It will forever stay with me as the: I want my engagement to happen here, right under this trees.
That aerial shot.
We camped in Fuerteventura, while explored this miles long beach with constant and constant waves and venturas.
My fav city: Istanbul.
Where magic happened, and got stuck and never left. Now it’s a pure mystery and secrets everywhere.
Fav perspective: Symmetry.
It was in Lyon, France I got this shot. Just never stopped liking this kinda approach to design and photography.
