the urge to create

I have been taking photographs for a while now.

I usually go out on weekends and wander around my place trying to find some nice spots I have never seen before.

I try to find places that are commonly ignored by most people because they are too close from where they live or not "exotic" enough.

I always try to find the "beauty" in the banality of life in a way. I try to find beauty in the small path that everybody walked thousands of times without even noticing the trees, the plants, the surroundings.

I often end up in small woods, or near rivers and fields, this kind of stuff and I document my small trips with my photographs.

But recently I felt the urge to make something else. I wanted more than just trying to see what was there, what was beautiful in a tree or a path.

I wanted to create something, I wanted to try to make some art that would be mine.

I also wanted to write somehow and so I chose to edit some of my photos and try to make them tell a story that would be accompanied by some text.

I am a huge fan of weird stuff, found footage, analog horror, that kind of things.

I like when the mundane, our everyday life and environment, slips and ends up being something else.

Something uncomfortable, or bizarre.

I like the idea that anything could "glitch" at anytime.

Since I can code, I decided to create some kind of fake blog that would tell a story illustrated with my pictures, I don't know where it will take me yet, but I am quite enthusiastic about it.

So long story short, if you want to read my weird attempt at a fake exploration blog go here :
