Poetry and art arrive from my dreams. Upon waking I write out the scenes to share it forward freely to the next artist for expression to be.

I mostly work with analog processes through film photography, with themes that touch upon Holistic romanticism and modern empathy -Exploring longing, vulnerability, and the human connection.
Where do you find inspiration?Most of my inspiration arrives from dreams and nature. As a multidisciplinary artist the poetry and music and 35mm film photography often overlaps.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $ to expand my practice in the creative ecosystem. Create an exhibition, that would help uplift and heal the community. As we all now reside in a digital saturated landscape with emotional detachments. Using analog as a slow media intervention, to bring a pause into a meditative presence over immediacy.
