About Me
I'm Ali, a London based
creator, curator, hoarder
and explorer.
Kuriosas is my portal for
cherishing, celebrating and
archiving oddball artefacts
and vintage graphics I
come across, documenting
unusual people and places,
and musing over visual
culture past and present.

photographer and
illustrator can be found here:
