I love using double exposure in photography, it lets me capture the emotion and raw energy of shows in different ways. Charcoal, music and poetry help me express sadness that I find hard to describe with words, it brings out emotions that I then put into words or art
Where do you find inspiration?The sadness, pain, sorrow and deep despair that I feel inspire me in art. I find comfort in very dark, expressive art. Concert photography is the entire opposite, I love seeing the happy emotion and energy of people, I find inspiration from cinematic style photography that I try to implement in my own ways
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it towards bettering myself, learning new skills and more equipment that can aid me in my journey
