I make art to unburden myself of the weight I laid upon myself. Poised between the urge to be heard and the wish to remain unseen.

Mainly through music, photography, painting and oration. Playing with my guitar or through Ableton. As for paintings, mainly acrylics and coloured pencils. It’s what my father equipped me with at an earlier age so I’ve just continued to hone that to the best of my abilities.
Where do you find inspiration?I find it in my own head. My emotions, my thoughts, the things I don’t quite understand yet. Even my weaknesses. They tend to say more than the polished parts ever could.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly just clear what I owe, give myself time to think without pressure, then put the rest into my craft and work, tools, learning, building something that lasts. I’d help family where I can but I know I need to get myself solid first.
