My Scholarship entry - ikigai - NZ

?I’m drawn to and seek photography & art which are infused with romanticism, light, intimacy and a certain lyrical quality. Always intrigued by the everyday wonders of the visual world. To capture the small flashes of insight that come when we are open to them, moments which often go before we can fully grasp or appreciate them. I feel words are a form of art and often combine them with my images.

I love working with people, I thinks it’s beautiful but also necessary in my creative|personal process. Photography has it’s own unique way of connecting me to another person and this is the most important thing.

Today all my essential belongings fit into my leather backpack and carry-on suitcase. Traveling around the world was the beginning of my project IKIGAI, meaning ’something one lives for’, a place for moments, words and imagery. Photography and art is my gateway to "visualize" life experience and dreams. To put all those worlds together.
