Since I’ve made a strong return to socials after 4 years since posting I thought it’ll make sense to introduce myself as the creative adult Ive become in those years away! 

I’m Dan ( yes just Dan jaja) I know my bio says multidisciplinary artist but in the way life has taken me it feels like I live multiple lives in one ( and I wouldn’t have it any other way) 

If we follow the time line…

I was a teen human rights/youth climate activist, led youth climate marches across London, one of our first ones reaching over 50k students across the UK and continue using my voice and platform to speak on and share awareness.

16 year old me first TV presence was in a doc with BBC on the student led climate marches ( have a lot to speak on this topic… let’s just say that).I have written pieces on my experience of longing and the effect of western climate ignorance on the rest of the world which were included in 2 books, so 16 year old me became a published author (?) and interviewee.

I was streetcasted and that led to my first & second modelling gig being with Adidas, first one commercial shoot for their adidas x London campaign.

Second one , which 16 year old me could not believe, was when I was handpicked to share my story as a creative teen first-gen migrant, one who felt too eccentric back home and here back then(!) this felt súper accepting and healing. It’s probably one of the first times I felt seen for who I am as a whole, an eccentric queer (bby then) migrant! Also south east London representeeeee! BIG UP SE❀️‍πŸ”₯

For #earthday I wanted to unlock the time capsule and share a @letterstotheearth_ poem I wrote when I was 17, β€œA place I call home” (slide 2&3) I was lucky enough for it to be published alongside other youth activists.
( you can still grab the book online β€œLetters to the Earth: Writing to a Planet in Crisis”) 

As a present homage to the pachamama I hold dearest  I selected this look to begin my series of β€œPachamama on canvas”.
The plant that inspired this look is β€˜Calethea Makoyana’ native to the tropical rainforest of South America, which I photographed last year at @kewgardens Peruvian orchid festival.

Ever since I got into makeup my way to describe what drove that passion was that I see the face as a canvas and creating editorial makeup looks for me reflected that, my first ever β€œout there” makeup look I did as an early teen was inspired by the hues of the holographic green-pink tones pigeons have on their neck, nature/mother earth ( pachamama) has always been my makeup inspiration.

Feliz fiestas PatriasπŸ‡΅πŸ‡ͺ - PERUVIAN INDEPENDENCE DAY❀️‍πŸ”₯ ( check & share second slide) 

This post is dedicated to share resources here in the UK for the multiple earthquakes in Perú, primarily in Junin region as it’s mainly a rural area and is in need of financial aid for those that have survived (6-10 deaths and over 30 injured) have lost their homes, their income as workers of the land they rely on crops and farm animals who have died. Those that survived the atrocity are dying of the freezing temperatures at night! 
PLEASE SHARE and give what you can, I took the liberty in editing an existing template by @perupendiente and translated / shared accessible ways for those in the UK & Europe to be able to donate! 

Aqui no celebra uno sin saber que su gente va estar a salvoπŸ‡΅πŸ‡ͺ❀️‍πŸ”₯
