Introducing Homme à la Pipe
@switchuptalon is an artist in his own right. Filmmaker. Photographer. Creative Director. Like all artists inspiration draws from somewhere. In this case it was Picasso or was it really Frank Ocean. While art has always imitated life. Life has begun to imitate art for him as well

Floraision de Tempête — TEMPEST BLOOM
Tempest — a violent intense storm or sometimes described as conflicting emotions…
Bloom — the state of flowering, representing a period of peak health, beauty, or vigor
Tempest Bloom is a RMC collaborative conceptual project highlighting an individuals sanity. It explores different ways one expresses themselves to keep their sanity. It shows visually throughout the imagery of being in a mist chaotic storm of emotions while also demonstrating us blooming throughout the storm (keeping our sanity).
The oil based style developed through inspiration from Pablo Picasso painting “ Boy With A Pipe”. The reference of the painting approach came after Talon (insert instagram name) expressed about how he found out about the painting within the song “Slide” by Calvin Harris Ft. Frank Ocean.
The floral styling reference developed from different fashion editorial examples showing ways how flowers were styled to evoke emotion, structure, and movement within each image.

There is absolutely nothing in this existence
that can keep me from choosing who i want to be and become
Nor take my essence
I choose this frequency to coincide with what i want to see and experience each and every day
Despite the worlds natural temptations and attempts to limit my self perception
I refuse to accept any reality that isn't aligned with my energy
Choosing me means putting all my eggs in one basket because i know just how powerful they are
Being me means speaking in frequencies instead of words
Knowing me is understanding honesty and a depth that makes reality feel a little different
Hearing me is observing the subtleness that can have an infinite sharpness
Seeing me is noticing the light and shades of intense energy that are constantly evolving

Your body is the instrument of your soul
Your, Our, My, The, consciousness that allows us to recognize our individual
One or billions?
Or none at all?
You think
You move
You speak
You listen
You create
You consume
You live
You get urges
You get feelings
You get premonitions
You get ideas
You know things that you dont know you know
You have ambition
You have a destination
You have light
You have time
You have space
You exist, like you really here right now reading what i, another individual, want to share with you
When are you going to explore all of you?
When will you see why you got a whole book to yourself?
When will you make the choice that you aren't sure of what the outcome will be
It could be a lesson for the next opportunity or it could be the greatest pivot of your life
The choice we are scared to make is usually the exact one we need to invest in
After learning to identify your fears and habits you should learn to understand them
Co create with them because they were never sent or designed to lower you in life progression
Your fears and habits know what you are capable of
but you don't seem to
and they are there to help you see that you are always one decision away from the higher version of yourself
Whenever and however you choose to make it through the current chapter
What's the best case scenario?

Its easy to confuse delusion with passion
Once emotions and experiences collide, it can change the trajectory of our lives
Feeling so deeply about something you find so much interest in for whatever reason
Whether its good or bad for you
You usually already know
Its about trusting yourself enough to decide
Yes or no
Forward or backward
Compare or contrast
Passion comes with a yearning
Delusion is usually a rush of some sort
Passion has room to expand, change, be built upon
Delusion is one way or no way
Passion gives purpose
Delusion gives validation
Passion has a flame thats usually eternal
Delusion has a flame as well, but its connected to a limited amount of fuel meaning you have to intentionally choose to keep it alive once it shows you its end
Passion picks you up when you want to say fuck it all and it motivates you to lose what you once valued meaning you're not afraid of the outcome cause you know it will always be what its meant to be
Delusion destroys with no intention to rebuild
Passion has layers, foundations, and strength that can endure the longest and the strongest push back
Delusion comes with limited evidence or overly analyzed evidence
Passion comes with ideas, inspiration, failures, restarts, organic and authentic experiences
Delusion distracts
Passion teaches
They both come with support, but can you tell the difference?
Which one makes you want to do something about it?
Which one makes you want to just hope something happens?
Allow your passions to guide you
Not the delusions that society birthed
