ABOUT ME
Hello all people of the world!
I am a restless dreamer, a critical thinker, a neurotic artist, and lazy.
PHILOSOPHY
It changes all the time. I believe in changing.
I like to think about dualities, division, entities and subject/object definitions. I really think alot about dialectics, the empty space in the concept of dualisms, and how it has affected the western culture and philosophy over time! I like to question structuralistic thoughtsystems and concepts, but I love to open my mind and change my opinion. I believe true understanding is only possible with reason and logic, and by questioning the borders of your own opinions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Amazing things is all around. I like to keep my amazings as relative terms.
Teach, Learn, Share
As I've been studying art and the history of art and visual culture, which also is my main interest, I could teach you both about the theories and the more technical artistic practice. I love talking about Art, culture and society. I love to hear about different cultures, and listen to beautiful languages spoken fluently.
I don't see this learning and teaching as a give and take sort of thing, I believe we're always learning from every experience, and that every new meeting with another person is a good lesson in life. To teach is to learn, and to learn is to teach. Also, my parents work as teachers, and their parents, and the parents of their parents. I could possibly teach something about teaching.
