i've been toiling with how to post on social right now. toiling with how to barley make art right now. toiling with how to allow for hope and optimism. but i know it's required.

the world, the pain, and everything going on in it... is a level of surreal that i didn't quite know could exist. the chaos and hurt are a growling guttural noise that never goes, that fills the room and the air and stings your eyes.

in this noise i know that i am here. and you are here. and that is all i know.

the film canister for these photos leaked in the lab. i was upset at the time, but now i understand. it's a jail cell made of light. light trapped behind light. by @styblova

Was recently reminded of this amazing collaboration with @rhiannonlewisjewellery photographing self-portraits for her jewelry line and rebrand by @weareboom. One of my favorite projects to date, thank y'all for having me ✨✨✨ by @styblova

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice –
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
“Mend my life!”
each voice cried.
But you didn’t stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do –
determined to save
the only life you could save.

The Journey

reposting this and changing my pfp thank you @brandon13. i spent the night crying and had only hours of sleep, luckily I don't remember about what, it must've not been that important 😆. But we met up for a bit.... Thank you and then again later for a while shoot, but this portrait is my favorite to date. Hope you're well by @styblova
