boyhood interrupted

There are stories told about boyhood—ones of adventure, rebellion, and becoming. But mine didn’t unfold so neatly. Boyhood was a language I never fully spoke, a space I often stood on the edge of. Somewhere between tenderness and expectation, I found myself rewriting the rules.

I grew up in the in-between: between cultures, between identities, between who I was and who I was expected to be. Raised in a world where masculinity was rigid, I learned to navigate it softly, deliberately. I found expression in the things I wasn’t supposed to—photography, design, storytelling—creating a visual language when words fell short.

I am drawn to the quiet details—the way light spills through a window, the imperfections that make something whole, the emotions that live between the lines. My work, my art, my way of moving through the world is an exploration of those pauses—the moments when the world tells you who you should be, and you decide otherwise.

“Boyhood Interrupted” is about finding yourself in disruption, in redefinition, in the beauty of standing apart.
