Vangjel Canga

Vangjel Canga (Vanca) was born in Tirana, Albania in 1979 where he also completed high school in 1998.

Since 1998 he has studied and worked in Athens, Greece (except for a one-year break for studying in England, UK).

He has writtn his first poems around 1996, but has worked more seriously in this direction during the 2004-2005 period and since 2008.

Besides poetry, he is also interested in the visual arts like painting and photography, and also music.

The poetry you'll read is gentle (and on the 'light' side, as opposed to 'dark') but that does not necessarily mean there's no deep thought in it.
