In search of lost parts of his childhood he tries to think outside the reality he was socialized into and create new ones with his parents and self. Through these he uses photography to explore the relationship with deception, the constructed reality of the family, and question the boundaries between parents , between child/adult, self/other, nature/culture, real/fake in attempt to revive his unconditioned self, beyond the family bubble. Although easily assumed to be photo shopped or faked, upon closer inspection the images are often realized to be more real than first expected. Involving staged installations, the cartoonist and the performative, he looks back at a younger self and attempt to re-capture childhood nature through assuming adult eyes.
