Every choice forks reality into being, sealing off a thousand alternatives. In those liminal spaces — streets and bars shrouded in half-darkness, metro stations and airports — hits that mono no aware chill: the sad glamour of what’s fated to vanish. People glitch into ghosts on long exposures, dissolving beyond the frame, unable to ever return.
What kind of realities are unfolding right beside me?
My photographs capture the eerie otherness of the everyday, as if this world is the same one yet no longer itself at all. Spaces and objects here turn into autonomous agents of reality— the void between skyscrapers weighs as much as any human, and their interplay is life itself.
Reality turns fluid, permeable. The heavy film grain and turquoise color pulse become hyperobjects from Timothy Morton’s Dark Ecology, piercing through worlds of what happened and what didn’t.
I am interested in collaborations with light sculptors and musicians, using sonic landscapes, light, and mirrors to unlock multimedia portals into different reality branches for live dialogue.
