FEATURED ARTWORK (On Display)
After over one decade of working abroad in international education, I've come to appreciate the importance of Curiosity in not only pedagogy, but in interpersonal connections and even in the most basic practice of empathy. Curiosity, and the ability to step outside of our minds and learn how to interact with our surroundings remains a crucial skill in an increasingly globalized and interconnected world.
While working in China, Japan, Bulgaria, and Kazakhstan, I utilized every long weekend and extended vacation to seek out adventures to places with gorgeous, yet raw and stark landscapes and rich, uncomfortable histories. All of my images have enlightening, humbling stories behind them as I seek to capture and share my own awe. I want my images to inspire curiosity and wanderlust in my audiences and make people ask: which adventures and experiences do I seek?

Featured Poem by Poet X Blu Rayne
Mz. Spokenword
“i Do”
I was so determined to be cold
Because I trusted the lies, someone told me.
That love was a foreign concept
That no one else would love me
I know that was all a lie
Why
Because he stepped out of heaven beyond my dreams
He carries my heart in his hand and put his as a ring
Willing to accept my history
Eager to learn my story
So, he can tell the world
Blu is my beautiful girl and my glory
He calls me girl because he values my innocence
Not concerned about time with others I have spent
He is here, and it feels like the others never did exist
I am so sure that this is love
Sent from my Father above
To remind me
Everyone has always remembered me
Never forgotten
That I am a prized peach and have not rotten
I thank God for my dreams coming true
I do not think that there is anything I need to do
I promise to love him for the rest of my life
Vowing to always be his friend, confidant, and his wife
I take you as my beloved husband for all eternity
I
take
thee
