For those born at the crossroads of the 80s and 90s, life has been marked by two defining themes: instability and uncertainty. The post-Cold War Europe, the Yugoslav Wars, the economic turbulence of the euro, the collapse of the Twin Towers, the shadows of terrorist attacks, the war in Afghanistan, the ozone layer crisis, the 2007 economic downturn, nuclear threats, the rise of ISIS, immigration from Africa and the Middle East, epidemics like Ebola and avian flu, the swine flu, COVID-19, and the looming environmental crisis—these have shaped our collective reality.

"Crises" is the key word for our generation.

We live in an age of crisis—of words, relationships, and images. While technological tools make us hyper-connected, they ultimately isolate us. Communication has become so effortless that words have lost their meaning. Information about others is so accessible that we no longer invest time in truly getting to know each other. Every day, we snap countless photos, filling our phones, pockets, and hard drives with images we will never revisit. We travel, taking photos of monuments that already exist in millions of other pictures, spending more time viewing them through screens than in the moment.

Through this project, I aim to encourage the viewer to pause. To rediscover time and silence—things that are so essential and natural yet have become luxuries few can afford.

Using analog photography, I want to elevate the uniqueness of each image, embracing the imperfections and flaws of the process. With double exposure, I express the chaos and confusion that the modern world generates within us, forcing us to stop and focus on the details. It is a way of externalizing our inner world, to derive meaning from what we feel and what we need.

Black and white photography adds a timeless quality, blurring the lines of day and night, seasons, and weather. It is a reflection of solitude and isolation.

Some images burn fast; others consume slowly.
