002 / Manifesto

I started photographing youth culture in the 90s. Fanzines. Bands. Noise. Rebellion. Before algorithms. Before aesthetics became optimized. GEN Z is a return to that visual instinct — reinterpreted through the language of contemporary youth culture.
Raw emotion.
Hyper identity.
Performance.
Vulnerability.
Chaos.

Not polished.
Alive.
