Tribe Order

My brother, Bijan Sharifi just came out with his new album Tribe Order as part of his side project Ulcantegu, now available on iTunes. Half of the the album's proceeds go to charity to help survivors of natural disasters. The album cover was designed by my best friend, and amazing artist, Tesily Diehl and even features a photograph she took of me. So cool to know I am surrounded by a best friend and brother who are so talented and always continue to inspire me. Great work guys! Also the track "Filthy Razcals" will be featured in my upcoming short film, pretty neat way to get a sneak peek.

Bon Voyage!

My best friend Tesily just left for Europe this week. I hope her trip is unforgettable and all around amazing. Knowing Tes, she will learn, experience, relax, and make every day wonderful. I miss her already.

Halloween Holga

My friend took this great picture of us on Halloween sitting around the seance table with her Holga camera.

Dream Scape

My best friend Tesily took some amazing photos and edited them for her photo final just recently. When I saw them, I was so inspired by their beauty and Tesily's ability to tell an amazing story through her photography thus I decided they must be featured on the blog. They are eerie, beautiful and fully prove that my friend has an amazing eye when it comes to art. She has always been one of my biggest inspirations in life, especially in art. Every year she puts together gorgeous, detailed, and brilliant Halloween costumes and has great taste when it comes to decor. When we first started hanging out together in middle school, Tesily and I immediately brought out our creativity and came up with abstract and bizarre stories; to this day we quote the silly characters we came up with. She has always inspired me and continues to do so every day, but don't take my word for it, just take a look at her work and you will clearly see how talented she is. I guarantee there will be many more posts on Tesily and her work!
