My work explores fleeting emotion, memory, and sensation. Spanning gelatin silver printing, film cinema, and digital photography, I find a deep connection to natural elements, especially water and human gestures. Enlarging and printing film through analog techniques allows me to invite a degree of tactile intimacy, where the process itself becomes a form of reflection and translation. Like water, the moments I capture are flowing. To invite sensation, some images are clearly rendered and others dissolving, leaning into the abstract. In capturing the ephemeral, I welcome the human response of longing for what has passed. I aim to evoke the full sensory weight of a moment—how it felt, smelled, moved—offering a space where perspective can shift.
