I have worked as a freelance artist since 2008. Before that, I was a journalist for a magazine and on the radio for over 25 years. I have published 7 poetry books, 2 children’s books, 1 youth novel and 1 book on the history of my hometown. My poems have been translated into many different languages, e.g. in Spanish, Swahili, Hungarian, Bulgarian, German, Arabic, English, etc. I have also written lyrics for three recorded children’s songs and directed documentaries and music videos. I have participated in countless poetry festivals around the world, e.g. Morocco, El Salvador, Chile, Kenya, Colombia, Mexico and Guatemala. In several of these countries, my poems have also been published in books. Most recently, my poetry book. “69 čuoldda – 69 Pillars” was published in 2020 in Colombia in Spanish under the name “69 Pilares”.
