LIMINAL (Look Closer)

This body of photographs may seem a diverse selection of pictures, but within them are anchors that, for me, demand further exploration. I worked outward from each image, finding echoes and contrasts, looking for the ways the subjects inform and comment on one another and building a visual language around form, tension, silence, and story. I sought threads: light and shadow, movement and stillness, concrete and wilderness.

These images reflect on the rhythm of infrastructure and the residue of human presence, even in places where we seem absent. A subway window blurs the faces of strangers into abstraction. A quiet room is full of tuxedos but only muted conversation. A bridge stretches into fog. A corridor tunnels beneath a rusting overpass. These are spaces we pass through without fanfare—mundane yet also emotionally charged.

There’s a deliberate slowness in these compositions. They may require time to unravel, as they ask you to notice what often goes unnoticed: the way infrastructure decays under light, how a lone chair positioned before a culvert can become sacred.

Connecting places with people, objects with subjects, solitude with community—and the viewer with the world that holds you. It’s all connected. We’re all together. We all make our way through this space. May we not neglect its beauty, its intrigue, its opportunities to engage.
