I'm very excited to share with you a new piece of work - The Blues. It's a flock of gorgeous hummingbirds. They are very detailed and delicate. They are blue like the sea or the sky. Like a visual poem evoking the power and freedom of nature. It...
ok so this feels a bit weird but as a final post about the Personal Territories exhibition I'm sharing some pics of me at the opening party. Not sure if this is just a massive ego trip, but they are very lovely photos by Désirée...
Here are a few photos that I took during the week, that capture some of the beautiful objects in the castle. There are so many beautiful things that it was hard not to spend all my free time photographing things. Here are some pics of things...
