Contemporary Artist And Hip Hop Vocalist, Ithaka On Cover Hollywood Weekly - July 2010 Issue
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
His abstract photographic art and body of sculpture work known as The Reincarnation Of A Surfboard have been exhibited globally, his most recent solo showings were hosted by The Camp in Costa Mesa, California in June 2010,[6] Gallery Alma Do Mar in São Paulo, Brazil in October 2010 and WOA-Way Of Arts in Lisbon, Portugal in December 2012 .[7]
At present the artist creates most of his musical, photographic and sculptural works at Recanto Akahti, his small ranch in rural South America located on the edge of the Atlantic Forest inAkahtiLândia, Brazil.[8]
Ithaka borrowed his stage name, he has said, specifically from the title of the poem "Ithaca" by the Greek poet, Constantine P. Cavafy, which in short summarizes that a journey is more important than the destination, that enjoyment of the journey of life, and the increasing maturity of the soul as that journey continues, are all the traveler can ask for. The poem, Ithaka has stated publicly, has served as a kind of life guide for the artist since he was in his early twenties. It should be noted that Cafavy's poem itself was inspired by the Homeric return journey of Odysseus to his home island, as depicted in the Odyssey, even further connecting the artist Ithaka to his Greek ancestry.
