ABOUT WORK

My work often combines photography and poetry. I have been writing poetry for numerous years and have several pieces published online and in print. My latest book ‘Feast of Crows’ is a mixture of English poems and those written in my native Czech. My photographs touch on Symbolism and tend be abstract in their style. However a theme that runs deep in both my poetry and photography is mental disorder and the way it affects the way we perceive reality and how it changes our experience of life.
