About the Book

Impressions Incomplete… Volume 1, published by Culicidae Architectural Press—an imprint of Culicidae Press®—is a selection of creative expressions that represents a major departure from the author’s previous works.

The book is a collection of expressed ideas and observations about life that take the form of photos, sketches, paintings, poems, and short stories. The author extracts and analyzes moments in the past that are triggered by his own memories and/or old photos. He vicariously relives both remembered and imagined contexts as he expresses how people are affected by tradition, cultural norms, and interpersonal relationships.
