Sentiment Journal is a body of work that explores the subtle, often unspoken landscapes of human connection. In this series, photography becomes a tool for self-discovery, allowing emotional states and life stages to surface through abstraction and poetic language.

Through photography and video, emotional bonds are approached as shifting states—marked by fragility, resilience, rupture, and quiet healing. Rather than documenting specific events, the work moves inward, transforming everyday materials and surfaces into symbolic vessels for feeling.

Objects are not personified, but used as metaphors that invite personal interpretation. Each section unfolds as a visual meditation, creating space for introspection, memory, and emotional resonance—where meaning emerges gently, without prescription.

Underwater Flowers presents floral forms in suspension, where light, movement, and water softens perception and alter the boundaries between nature and abstraction.

Submerged States explores inner landscapes where light drifts through uncertainty, revealing moments of quiet clarity beneath the surface.

Waterdrops‍ focuses in intimate surface encounters, where small accumulations and subtle shifts invite a slower, more attentive way of seeing.

In Still Waters, calm surfaces and distant horizons become spaces of suspension, inviting the viewer into a slower, meditative encounter.

These images explore moments of transition, where inner reflection meets shared presence.

These images linger on quiet surfaces, where light, color, and time gently meet.

This series brings together fragmented environments and recurring forms, assembling a visual rhythm that reflect cycles of experience, memory , and return.
