SUENOS - Psychedelic Rock band from Cape Town, South Africa. This shoot was behind the scenes during the preparation of their first single release "Anima" the glow of their eyes in anticipation for their upcoming shows & album releases.
UNE ME'RE - Memories of living inside a vessel, outside of my own, holding me and carrying me. Safe from danger, safe from everything. Now living far away from where I came. far from
the mother that carried me inside of her body. living with the wait for death, living alone with the child that lives within you. The untouched life of what you could become.
THE BLUE LIGHT UNDERGROUND - A live performance video capturing a sweet serenade by Maya Grey, Acacia- Anne , Tyla Burnett from Black Math, Chelsea Ann Peter - Blue Vow and Will from Bland Boy. What an honour to share a space of sonic and sensory magic with great musicians.
