Every artist knows the season when creation demands everything. When you’re the one making, editing, writing, and building, there’s no balance—only the work itself. But inside that intensity lies a deeper understanding of why we create at all.

What we say about our photographs—how we describe them, interpret them, share them—can shape the work itself. After years spent in galleries and in conversation with collectors, I’ve learned that finding the words is more than an afterthought. It’s a creative act of its own.

Even after 25 years on the path, insecurity still surfaces—especially when it comes to sharing. But when we meet it with presence, it becomes part of the process, not a barrier to it.
