Pepsi or Coke- one of my past projects
'Pepsi or Coke' series
This series is a product of the photographer’s exposure to the varied cultural milieu of London, possibly the most multicultural city in the world, one of the most evident encounter points of the East and the West. Women in hijabs, and women in excessively revealing clothing are both a common sight in London, as well as in other locations around the world. Both of these images can be seen as an expression of diverse worldviews and are both critically scrutinized in the globalizing arena. This series does not attempt to promote a particular cultural perspective. It invites the viewer to speculate on the beauty of the debate particular to our era. This beauty lies in the wild array of information we encounter, the opportunities this information gives and the choices it allows us to make. This work celebrates choice on different levels whether it is a choice between conservative and radical, modest and flamboyant, high heels or flat shoes or simply between Pepsi and Coke.

LAURA Nahon Ostos
She said: "Imagine being a bee and living in a great big hive. You would have no idea tomorrow was going to be any different than today. You could return to that same hive thousand years later and there would be just the same perception of tomorrow as never being any different. Humans are completely different. We assume tomorrow is another world."
I asked her what she meant, and she said, "I mean that the animals live in an other sense of time. They can never have a sense of history because they can never see the difference between today and tomorrow."

past of childhood
You are drinking tea, burning your tongue. You blow to cool it. You make little sips and you slurp so loudly, that it's impolite, or so I've been taught in childhood. And I start to slurp too. Because it's not childhood anymore. And everything is allowed.
