A Digital Exhibition -- My work is driven by a technical fascination with how light behaves how it bends across a surface, diffuses through atmosphere, or reveals the micro-structure of a material. Using medium-format systems, I focus on optical accuracy, dynamic-range fidelity, and the subtle shifts that occur at long exposure times. Each image is an investigation into clarity, texture, and the mechanics of seeing. At the same time, my process is guided by a curiosity reminiscent of da Vinci a desire to understand how things are built, how they age, and how their hidden geometries shape perception. Wabi-sabi principles inform this approach: the worn edge, the imperfect line, the trace of time recorded in light. This digital exhibition brings together my technical practice and my exploratory mindset a space where precision and wonder coexist, and where photography becomes both research and reflection.
