About the Work
This body of work explores the concept of liminal spaces—those transitional areas that exist between one state and another. Empty hallways, abandoned structures, parking garages at dusk, hotel lobbies devoid of people. These are the in-between places that evoke a particular feeling of unease, nostalgia, and mystery.
Liminal spaces exist in a state of suspension. They are neither here nor there, neither past nor future. They represent thresholds, passages, moments of transition. In these photographs, I aim to capture that particular quality of being suspended between states—the familiar rendered strange, the mundane transformed into something otherworldly.
The surreal elements in this work emerge not from manipulation, but from careful observation of the uncanny that already exists in our built environment. A certain quality of light, an unusual perspective, the absence of expected human presence—these subtle elements combine to create images that hover between memory and dream.
Each photograph invites contemplation. They ask the viewer to sit with discomfort, with uncertainty, with the strange sensation of recognizing a place that may never have existed outside of collective consciousness. These are the spaces we move through without seeing, the moments we forget, the thresholds we cross without acknowledgment.
Through this work, I hope to make visible the invisible—to draw attention to the overlooked, the transitional, the ephemeral. In doing so, perhaps we can better understand our own relationship to the spaces we inhabit and the boundaries we navigate daily.
Artistic Philosophy
"The most interesting places are those we pass through without noticing— the lobbies, the corridors, the waiting rooms. These are the spaces where nothing happens, and yet everything changes."
Process & Approach
Capture
All images are captured in-camera with minimal post-processing. The goal is to find and document the surreal qualities that already exist in our environment, rather than creating them artificially.
Composition
Each frame is carefully composed to emphasize emptiness, symmetry, or unusual perspectives. The absence of human figures is intentional—these spaces are meant to feel suspended in time.
Timing
Light is crucial. Many images are captured during liminal times—dawn, dusk, the blue hour—when the quality of light itself feels transitional and uncertain.
Presentation
The work is presented as cohesive collections, each telling a broader story about transition, memory, and the uncanny nature of familiar spaces rendered unfamiliar.
