I practice photography as a tool for observation, a means of approaching the world and preserving traces of it. My work is rooted in straight photography: no staging, no intervention. I photograph situations as they appear, in their simplicity and truth. I am drawn to places, ordinary gestures, and quiet moments that make up daily life. Each image is an attempt to capture an instant of reality, a fragment of the world as it presents itself. Photography becomes, in this way, a form of presence and attention: to look, to wait, and to recognize the moment when something reveals itself.
