Do waste and discarded objects carry a story? Can what has been rejected hold meaning—or even a voice? For me, the answer is yes. 

My work explores the “afterlife” of what has been abandoned. 

It’s an almost forensic research, finding its resolution in the darkroom. 

I examine notions of value, sustainability, and the photographic image itself, creating a dialogue between the discarded and the eternal, the fragmented and the whole, the neglected and the revered. This practice continues a long artistic tradition attentive to the marginal and overlooked—from 17th-century vanitas still lifes to modern practices that reimagine discarded materials as carriers of meaning.

What seems worthless today may reveal its visual and conceptual power tomorrow, I believe.

In my work, silence remains articulate, an after-voice, still unfolding.
