The Flesh of the Lychee
“I think of her sometimes, on nights like this, when my shirt is low and the wind kisses my chest as greedy eyes stare. They don’t know there is nothing there anymore. I ate her years ago, splitting the tough skin with my front teeth to reach the fruit inside. But tonight, here, with the moon hiding behind low, yellow clouds, Beautiful Girl walks with me.”

Specs of my core, Exploding outwards.
Inspired by works by Youssef Nabil, Shahin Alipour, Lalla Essaydi and Shirin Neshat, this series of photographs explores the beauty of seemingly ‘paradoxical’ intersecting identities; being from the SWANA region, queer, religious/ non-religious – a child of diaspora existing in the uncertainty between eastern and western culture.
Imagining Childhood In Lebak Siliwangi
Drawing inspiration from the dark and gritty work of Daido Moriyama, this photo series intentionally juxtaposes the youthful children within a Moriyama-esque visual style, mirroring the contradicting aura of past and present that enveloped Lebak Siliwangi.

What's the Craic?
Craic is my attempt to publish my own work, through championing Northern Irish culture. It started as a response to increasing tensions during the pandemic and through Brexit in the U.K.
Let's pretend
On that Friday afternoon, we revisited those shy little girls that met for the first time, tangled hair from climbing trees and crayon smeared hands that reached out to hold, toothless grins whispering ‘Let’s pretend...’

An ode to past relationships and the ghostly apparitions of memories that are ever present as time goes on.
