Who am I? Bogdan. I am an artist expressing through music, dancing and visual art. But, I would say my strengths are in music and painting. Where am I from? I was raised in a small farm town outside Detroit. In 2008, I moved to the Bay Area and have been here since. What I’m looking for? Connection: We all tend to feel comfortable in our groups. Hopefully without filling a false narrative, we can find people to harmonize with, not to be with people who are too agreeable. Honesty, even if it hurts, is the best act one can do for the self and others. Attention: Listening is very important in any relationship, it shows character and care. Communicate clearly and truthfully as best you can. Affection: Physical touch is important. Since I look through an artist lens, I see things as transcendent and beautiful when it comes to sexual or non-sexual connections. Yes we can be animals, but do it with class and mutual respect. Love is music, life is music and we are forms of art. Play: Since we were , play was an important form of our development. If you are a square that does not break out of your comfort-zone, you will not grow. A flower does not not grow from the sun alone. My interest in play include but are not limited to the outdoors, reading, adult hide-and-go-seek, making moss art, deep listening of music, Iceland, lectures, gardening, psychology, psychedelics…
