Photography is teaching me to not just look but observe, so enhancing my sense of seeing. Looking at pictures reveals previously unseen details and connections, so gives me a better understanding of life. Being out on the streets makes me interact with people I don’t know, so gives me a deeper sense of living.

Being in the centrifuge of life with a clear eye on what matters. Movement as a natural biotope for feeling alive. Movement as a cure for stagnation. And centrifugal power as a way to stabilize your own center of gravity.
