Using photography, I explore potential ways to represent the unconscious: through images, light, narrative, and form, dialogues are constructed between the external and “internal” worlds, touching upon questions about our perception, the origins of our emotions, and what is hidden beneath the surface of the visible.

The exploration of the unconscious becomes a journey for me, immersing myself in various spheres of human experience. The crafted images provide an opportunity to meet oneself in that zone where words cease to be necessary, and the images speak silently. 

“I find inspiration in the details that might go unnoticed in the hustle of everyday life and in the random moments that create a strange 'unreal' reality for a fleeting instant.”
