video diaries
these are very similar to how i experience memories. i create these for my own sake, to remember times, capture moments, capture my history. i do have more content oriented on my youtube channel , however my video diaries are meant for exactly what they say they are, diaries.
most of these are recorded on my panasonic cam corder that i’ve had since i was 8. these videos are just compiled footage that i’ve been collecting in my life since then. the clearer shots are from either my fuji xt-5 or my iphone.
from 2022-2023 i experienced my first “artist block” there was a point where i didn’t create for months. it was a very… exposing time. in the midst of a bunch of change and transitions i found myself in vietnam for 5 weeks, visiting my partners family and learning about his culture. in this change of scenery and of lifestyle i was able to detach from the expectations from my reality back home this gave me room to explore, express, and create freely and to let go of things i was holding onto that were blocking me from growing in my artistry. it helped me realize why i was “blocked”, and what to let go of. this video reminds me of freedom. it reminds me of the rawness, the child-like essence and the importance of creation outside of self imposed or outwardly imposed restrictions. they are not real, and the act of creation has always meant to transcend.
