MYTH MADE MODERN

My work lives at the intersection of story, place, and making.

  • Dream it.

    Every great work begins with a signal —
    a moment that won’t loosen its grip on you.

    A quiet question.
    A feeling that returns again and again.

    I’ve spent my life following those signals across deserts, mountains, cities, and forgotten thresholds — letting the world shape me as much as I shape the work. Whether through film, photography, design, or building with my hands, everything begins the same way:

    By listening.

    To the land.
    To intuition.
    To the subtle pull of what wants to exist.

    Dream it first.
    Then give it room to breathe into form.

  • Build it.

    Creation is craft.

    It is discipline.
    It is patience.
    It is the willingness to show up again and again until an idea earns its shape.

    From sculpting images to constructing physical spaces, I build with intention. I follow the structure beneath the story — the quiet architecture beneath the surface — and bring ideas into the world with clarity, honesty, and precision.

    Nothing rushed.
    Nothing wasted.
    Everything grounded.

    This is where vision becomes real — through hands, time, and care.

  • Grow it.

    Once something enters the world, it begins to live.

    It changes through interaction.
    Through use.
    Through the people who carry it forward.

    A photograph grows as it finds new eyes.
    A space grows as it gathers stories.
    A creation grows as it becomes more than what I imagined at the start.

    Growth is not a single moment — it is a living process.
    Refinement. Expansion. Evolution.

    Growth is the continuation of the dream
    carried forward with purpose.
