STONED

#2072235

So, there will be heavy content and heavy emotions and stories of people who will appear in my photos. I don’t know why, but I felt a certain need to film and publish this material. Maybe it’s a reflection of my overdose experience, or maybe people are just people, and everyone has their own path that we do consciously or unconsciously.

COUPLE

#2072225

I smelled melted crack for the first time in Vancouver. After this experience, it will not be possible to confuse it with any other stench. This couple is on the verge of a 10-minute trip. Afterward, they will face hours of dopamine deficiency. In fact, sometimes, people who try crack become instantly addicted the first time they use the drug. So, is this time the first time they decided to do this?

LAST LOST VAN

#2142141

I’m on duty; he’s on duty. I know that he knows; he knows that I know. I need what he has; he has what I need. Collaboration indeed.

HUSTLING

#2142035

This shot transcends mere composition, lighting, and narrative. This is the moment when a person has the look of a wild animal. But it is a question of whether the wild animal is on the hunt or cautiously evading conflicts.

FUNNY STORY

#2142050

I was captivated by the storytelling of one of the guys while the other listened and laughed along. The atmosphere was enjoyable, prompting me to grab my camera and discreetly capture the moment. Despite being in close proximity, they remained engrossed in their interaction, completely unaware of being photographed.

CHALLENGING

#2142015

I was drawn to his protective posture, as if safeguarding something of great significance. I pondered what it could be, but besides a bottle and a cigarette, his hands held nothing else. Meanwhile, the guy on the right appeared to be saying something, to which the smoker’s facial expressions hinted at displeasure.

DECISIONS

#2142021

Do people truly grasp the value of freedom of choice and its profound impact on their lives? Do they comprehend that it grants personal autonomy, facilitates self-expression, and empowers them to pursue their goals? If they do, what KPIs can be employed to assess the extent to which individuals are realizing this freedom and making informed decisions?

ART DEALER

#2072245

This place reminded me of a flea market in my hometown. A bunch of different junk that, oddly enough, someone needs. But I was amazed by the deer antlers, which I had never seen before.

UPROAR

#2072255

This shot was accidental. Walking down the street, I saw a man crouching down, looking at me from the bottom up and muttering something. I decided to put the camera away so do not to annoy him, but accidentally pressed the shutter button, and in a moment the uproar arose.
