Design is not just about screens or empathy—it’s about humanity.

For too long, design has been about crafting the perfect user experience, obsessing over pixels, and solving surface-level problems. But the world is hurting, and design has to mean more than aesthetics.

We need to shift our focus—from numbness to awareness, from HELL to HELP. It’s time to dig deeper, to create designs that raise empathy and inspire real action. Let’s use our creativity to make a difference. Let’s design for humanity.
End hatred. Grow love. End violence. Grow peace. 🌿✨

It starts within — choose love over fear, understanding over anger. Every small act of kindness adds up, like planting seeds of peace. 🌸🤲
F**k Fentanyl. 💉💔

This crazy drug is flooding the streets, dragging down lives and destroying communities. 💔 It’s time to wake up and stop the spread of this deadly poison.

Addiction doesn’t just need medicine—it needs empathy, compassion, and mental care. 💉💪

I honor the courageous souls who fought for freedom. Embrace free expression in all realms!

I am thrilled '6.4' to be part of the "Noncompliance" exhibition at The Hague!
The impact of The June 4th Revolution lingers within me. I honor the courageous souls who faced dictatorship head-on, fighting for freedom. Embrace the freedom of expression in both physical and digital realms.
