i've always been passionate about photography, but when SADDI died i stopped taking pictures, i just didn't have any inspiration. When we moved to Seattle i found my passion again and even bought a new camera that allowed me to truly capture life. But due to 4 mini strokes, i can take pictures as i once did. My balance is off and it is difficult for me to properly click on the shutter. Losing SADDI was the most devastating piece of my life. i used photography as an escape from my depression. Without being able to photograph, i am forced to fully face my depression.
SAISAR unlimited foundation
- Saisar SADDI Berrong
- Happily and proudly married queer male to my beautiful partner Devon. My love and inspiration for a wonderful life is Saisar Saddi Berrong (February 28, 1996 to August 9, 2009), a very beautiful, spoiled and loyal chow/lab mix. (SADDI is far more human and humane than most of the 'humans' we have encountered within my life) I am an award winning poet (Famous Poets Society 1996) with a strong passion for photography. Devon and I are planning to open our own gallery to highlight not only our own talents, but those who are not yet known within the arts community. Everyone needs a beginning and we want to encourage that space and confidence for others. I am also a writer, currently working on a book about my life, the struggles and overwhelming joys. But right now my direction in life has shifted because of my precious SADDI's death. The SAISAR unlimited foundation will work to raise funds for people struggling with vet bills. We will also gather supplies to give to dogs, who along with their humans, are homeless. The memory of SADDI will live on by the good that can be done within the community.
