Currently I am working as an architect and a freelance photographer. Ever since I was a student my major focus has always been revolved around achieving success in my architecture career. I also had several approaches towards photography and Photoshop associating it with architecture. With the time my interest in those two mediums increased and through my spontaneous character I started involving my emotions and personal experiences in creating a new direction for myself through photography, reflecting my inner feelings and thoughts. This triggered my concern of my future career, either to continue in the architecture field or focus more on my new passion, with the time I came to a conclusion that my main interest was actually the conceptual approach in both fields.
My inner fulfillment was to express and reflect my personal emotions; I would say that this was my window of creativity, through which I unleash both my positive and negative energies. It is my ultimate satisfaction when I am able to create a visual reflection of my intangible thoughts and feelings and be able to share it with the world.
As an architect I find myself in direct contact with static but creative designs, however through my study and my work experience, I developed an interest for art in general. The camera was my first tool and hence photography became my passion. I typically started with traditional photography, and then developed it into a form of art. My work in my opinion is very personal. They are like a visual journal to me. I treat my work like an artist treats his canvas. Layers of brainstorm, research and conceptual approach rather than aesthetic.
