2026 01 06: Creative Resolution

My Creative Resolution for 2026

Last year I was planning to make a big pivot both to making motion work and hitting the streets once again as a photographer (see: 2025 01 06). The thinking was, by putting myself into the city and regularly making work wherever the roads and trains took me, I’d be influenced and inspired while simultaneously building a new body of work and getting my name out there. As it happened, I failed at both. This is not to say I didn’t have a successful year from a creative perspective, however, the specific goals I’d set for myself were not met. When I stop to think why this was the case, I think it was largely because I got distracted with life events and ultimately the reason for picking these tasks was misaligned with the reality of how to best achieve my bigger career goals.
