Between Everything and Nothing/ 2024
The series Between Everything and Nothing draws its inspiration from the fluidity of time, essentially depicting what was once and what could be. Created in the beginning of 2024, it dives into the subconscious dreams, desires, and fears of the Self. Unveiling the individual, yet universally shared journey of humanity, it reflects the eternal exploration into the unknown. Much like the unpredictable course of life, this work encapsulates the cyclical nature of losing and finding oneself. The three images seamlessly form a symbolic circle, navigating through stages of self-discovery, experiencing rises and falls.
An essential aspect of this project was finding a location that fully supports the central narrative. As one of the youngest formations on Earth, volcanic rocks are born in fire, yet awaiting to be shaped by nature. Photographing in this scenery felt special, almost mystical, and deeply self-reflective. The immersive beauty, and unforgiving raw texture of the rocks, when in direct contact with the fragile human skin, felt like knives going against the body. This feeling became a metaphor for the forces that shape and refine us over time.
