Pretty Pictures Gone Wrong

As a photographer, photojournalist, visual journalist, visual artist....wait! i'm tired of classifications, genres, molds, labels, titles and niches--Let's restart...As a human being, i can deal with this, excluding any spiritual concerns...

As a human being who uses, that's right uses, a metal or (sometimes plastic) object as a tool to document condition not as art or any other self-righteous form, am tired and bored of pretty pictures, perfect composition, flattering light or any other set-ups or tricks of the trade learned in schools, workshops, lectures, internships, assists, etc.  This might sound negative, but really just honest.   From now on I vow to keep it RAW, REAL, RELENTLESS and OPEN to draw viewers inside a frame or a snap of life.
