BIOGRAPHY
studied philosophy in paris for a while. didn't go far with my studies. that was after the revolution. for there seems to have been a revolution and i was there, stuck in the middle of the blood-shed, violence, mass hysteria and then the repression. been writing poetry for the past twenty years or so. not much to say now days not that i ever said anything. speech and silence just as elusive. photography as last escape? maybe. routes all barred, maybe. there is nowhere to go and nothing to attain,so you just keep going. have no clue what these images try to convey. dont have an aruist's statement. just failed attempts at pointing to the unspeakable. let that pass too, the pointing finger, the tied tongue, failed attempts to break through mutism, the violent irruptions of the unspeakable, the lush lament of impossible prayers and inaudible cries. yes, let that pass too....
