into the storm and around the bend,
unsure what’d be waiting at the end.
the beginning of something fresh and new,
but not without question of what she’d do.
most go to the desert for peace. we went for mayhem. all warnings unheeded. brutal wind potential with no cover. micro bullets pounding exposed skin from every direction. pouring grains out of clothing for 3 days. sacrificing all camera equipment for the shot. a scene hollywood can’t make without a mad max budget. likely the most non-recreatable image i’ve ever formed. all for a project from the heart with a dear friend who rented a van & covered hotels. 0 pay. of course this is how it goes most of the time for freelance creatives working on the “cool” stuff. 2,142 miles of a loop journey all at the beginning of a new chapter in my life wading into unfamiliar waters with a relationship but inspired & fired up creatively while exploring the craziest places on earth that were once under the ocean during the dinosaur age. watch the short film here, called FORBIDDEN STRUCTURES by DADAYEARZERO:

(( 32°49'58.0"N are half of the coordinates, hence the price of quite possibly my grailest of grails in the catalogue as of today. i won’t give away the longitude :))

Another favorite from the vault that I've been saving for @lens/lens. In the heart of the West Village, where cobblestone streets whisper tales of bygone eras, a solitary figure moves along, mirrored in the inverted reflection of freshly washed windshield. Amidst the urban symphony of concrete and graffiti, the scene evokes a surreal dance between the tangible and the ethereal, inviting contemplation on the interconnectedness of our surroundings and our selves.
