nature and self

This work is part of my ongoing dialogue with nature—its rhythms of change, decay, and resilience echoing my own personal journey. As environmental issues increasingly impact human health and well-being, especially through shifting landscapes and rising temperatures, I’ve come to better understand the delicate interconnections between nature, species, and human life.

Pollution, climate change, and biodiversity loss can often feel distant or invisible. These images turn abstract concerns into something people can see, feel, and connect with. It’s my way of making a difference, however small.

These 35mm exposures were washed in a 40 degree cycle before being developed. The artistic process of damaging 35mm film by washing it in a washing machine at 40 degrees was both an experiment and an act of surrendering control.

 I don’t think I walked far that morning. I remember the dog walker, and a curtain milk cart driving past.
