2024
Unspoken Ties: Feelings Received is a personal and emotive photographic project that explores the depth and nuance of human connection through black and white imagery. Centered around the artist's own relationships with close family and friends, the project captures intimate moments that reflect love, friendship, and the quiet significance of everyday interactions.
“Unspoken Ties: Feelings Received is a deeply personal photographic project, focusing on the cherishedrelationships in my life. Through the timeless medium of black and white photography, I capture moments withloved ones – family and friends who hold a special place in my heart. These photographs are not just images; they are my most treasured memories.This project extends beyond mere visual documentation; it delves deeper into the relationship between words and images. Overlaying the photographs are fragments of text messages – digital echoes of genuine conversations exchanged between the sender and receiver. These messages serve as windows into the unfiltered authenticity of the relationships depicted. They bear witness to the everyday exchanges, the inside jokes, the expressions of love and even the unspoken burdens we carry, all of which define the bonds between individuals. For me, these photos are more than just some of my favourite snapshots; they encapsulate the essence of what it means to be truly connected to another human being. They are a celebration of love, friendship, and the timeless beauty found in the everyday moments we share with those who matter most.”
