So beautiful even when angry.
I'm talking about the sea, not about angry people.

"It's kind of a rule of thumb for me to self-doubt going into any kind of project. I always think that I shouldn't be doing it and I don't know how to do it and I'm going to fail and that I fooled them. I always try to find a way out."

Ever heard of marine Ikebana poetry?
🐚
I came up with it since as much as I liked the aesthetics and philosophy of traditional Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement, I find seashells and visual poetry more inspiring and less painful than cutting branches or even just flowers from a living plant.

When we're young, we don't know how rich we are. It's only after we start paying for repairing this body part and extending the use of that body part that we start valuing life.

"Home is essentially a set of values you carry around with you and, like a turtle or a snail or whatever, home has to be something that is part of you and can be equally a part of you wherever you are. I think that not having a home is a good inducement to creating a metaphysical home and to being able to see it in more invisible ways."

🐚 The human heart likes a little disorder in its geometry, said Louis de Bernieres, and my weakness rests with the golden ratio which I've been using in the layout of all of my visual poems just like the mollusks building the seashells I've collected did without consciously being aware of.🐚
