kai sholmes blog

about me

Kai (he/him). I like detectives, history, communism, and art. In undergrad studying art history.

This website is a way to organise all my written thoughts into one place, mostly analysing art/literature and other stuff. I don't try to maintain consistent themes/efforts/anything, so I write what I want to write and some thoughts are more coherent than others.

I write a lot about art but I make some too. See my photography, illustration, film, and more through the "portfolio" button on top. If you're curious about even worse quality thoughts than the ones featured here, check out my twitter through the "twitter" button.

If you want to talk to me, you can message me on twitter, instagram, or email me at solarotters@gmail.com.
