SOME OF MY MUSIC ON SPOTIFY,
ANOTHER SIDE OF ME
People in my province don’t move out that much, while I’m one of the very few who has been chasing the world since my early 20s. Over the past years, unlocked so many life experiences, explored a lot of things and places. Feels like I’ve reincarnated into a life that I could’ve never thought of. FROM HERE, THE BOY MEETS THE WORLD.

A MAN,
I WAS A BUTTERFLY

UNREALISTIC REALITY…

“I DON’T LIKE THE COLLUSION BETWEEN HIGH FASHION DESIGN AND HIGH STREET. YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHERE YOU STAND”
- HEDI SLIMANE
I WENT OUT TO TAKE PHOTOS OF DIFFERENT COVID-19 SIGNS IN CENTRAL LONDON WHEN THE CITY ENTERED THE SECOND LOCKDOWN IN WINTER 2020.
I WANTED TO CAPTURE A VERSION OF LONDON THAT NONE OF US WERE EVER FAMILIAR WITH. THE MORE I LOOKED AT THE CITY, THE SADDER IT MADE ME FEEL.
BACK IN 2020 WHEN TOILET PAPER WAS A SOLD-OUT THING.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PROFESSIONAL ARTIST AND PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN ART IS PROFESSIONAL ARTIST CAN CREATE ALL THE TIME, THEY EAT AND SLEEP WITH CREATIVITY 24/7. IN COMPARISON, PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN ART, THEIR ENTHUSIASM COULD DIMINISH ANY TIME. SOME PEOPLE I KNOW, THEY GOT INTO MAKING ART AS A HOBBY DURING THE LOCKDOWN, AND WHEN THE LOCKDOWN ENDED, THEIR ART ENDED AS WELL.
I LIKE BEING ILLOGICAL WITH MY LOGICS
IT IS NOT A GHOST TOWN IF NO GHOSTS ARE IN THE TOWN
In London, you don’t need a pro camera for taking photographs. Just simply use your phone, and the landscape itself will do the rest for you.

The best part of my creativity is I can be extremely arty with art and logical with design at the same time. It’s like having completely two different personas in me. I’m not a single-layer person, but a multi-layers one of course.
INTEREST IS SOMETHING ONE WOULD FALL FOR. PASSION IS SOMETHING ONE WOULD FIGHT FOR.
