“In the busy heart of the city, I uncover hidden narratives and quiet moments. 'On the Outside Looking In' captures urban solitude against the vibrant backdrop, evoking a longing for connection. I search for moments that speak volumes without saying a word. Windows, with their role as both barriers and connections between public and private spaces, became a focus in my work. My inspiration for this approach stems from the evocative works of Edward Hopper and Vivian Maier. Hopper’s paintings masterfully depict solitary figures in urban settings, capturing the essence of modern life, while Maier’s street photography delves into themes of solitude and human connection. Drawing from their artistic styles and themes, I aim to evoke similar emotions and narratives within the context of contemporary urban life through my photography.Collectors who acquire 1/1s or multiple pieces receive an exclusive zine, offering tactile and auditory immersion into the project's themes”
