Against The Grain

Against The Grain Finding beauty in a world full of darkness is always going through my mind. I view myself as a translator for the world.

Earth is speaking to us and I use my camera to decode its messages.

Back in November 2020, Mvstermind hit me up to come hang while he worked on his Yaris at The GEM.
The space wasn’t a studio yet — it was raw. No soundproofing, no setup… just a heater, a fan, a ladder, and a whole lot of vision.

I remember thinking even then — this place is gonna be something.
There was this energy in the air, like we were standing inside a dream that hadn’t fully taken shape yet.
The GEM wasn’t just about music, it was about building something bigger — a hub, a home base, a space for art, collaboration, growth.

Moments like this feel small at the time — but they’re everything.
The early grind. The figuring-it-out stage.
I document this stuff because it matters. The process is the story.
And this one’s just getting started. Swipe —> to see The GEM in use
