A photographic collection of my visual diary. Visions of my endless thoughts, and my struggles of being human with a sprinkle of synesthesia for color.

For 15 years I’ve honed in on my artistic eye, to create my current aesthetic. I learned to utilize my synesthesia in my photography. Listening to music makes me see colors. I bring that color back into my photography. 

As I’ve evolved as a human, so too has my artistic expression. Traversing through life, I have noticed that it is becoming increasingly more difficult to be human. 

What is it to age? What is it to die? What is it to be happy? What is balance? What happened to my inner child? What is mental stability?

Being human is difficult. It is through hardships that I feel we, as humans, are able to connect. Through my portfolio, I hope to express life’s difficulties, in an elegant way which will help to bring us together.

Be Human. Be Kind.

I sink in the sand, the more I age

The world forces me underground

You suffocate me blue

I’m descending

I’m sinking

I’m aloof

The more I've aged the more negative events I've experienced. These negative events shaped me to be more introverted, and distant. I must actively remind myself, to not be aloof. It's not healthy for my well being.

Don’t lock yourself in.


Chromesthesia colors inspired by Florence + The Machine, ”Between Two Lungs”.

Chromesthesia or sound-to-color synesthesia is a type of synesthesia in which sound involuntarily evokes an experience of color, shape, and movement. I see colors when I hear certain music, or sounds. I use this ability in my photography by altering certain colors to match what I see from listening to music.

What is the value?
