Photographs and journals from July to December 2022 “What an odd thing a diary is: the things you omit are more important than those you put in.” Simone de Beauvoir. * Tonight I dreamt I was back in L.A.I was there, but I wasn’t exactly me — more like a younger version of myself, though […]
Pictures from January to June 2022 I like to reconcile past and present.
