Artist Statement

In this photographic series, I investigate the relationship between organic, tactile subjects and its environments and the relation to geometric, translucent glass forms.

In the first set of a series of paired images, I search for the natural, opaque, or textured visuals. Such as fabric, foliage, animal, objects, or architectural detail and turned it into visual dialogue in contrast with glass objects that are rigid, refractive, and artificially colored. These pairings are then arranged vertically, allowing color to function as the primary bridge between the two visual worlds.

In contrast to the paired works, there are two individual photographs with isolated focus on translucency itself as the subject. For these images, glass objects partially obscure the natural environment behind them, producing layered, fragmented views that alter the mode of perception. One that is mediated, constructed, and subtly disorienting.

Collectively, this body of work explores how material, color, and transparency influence perception. By juxtaposing the opaqueness with the constructed translucency, I aim to reveal how vision can be reshaped through artificial lenses, blurring the boundary between the natural world and its abstraction.
