For this project, I aimed to explore the relationship between light, shadow, and architecture through a minimalist and abstract lens. My goal was to transform ordinary spaces into something more poetic by emphasizing the subtle beauty in everyday details. Inspired by artists like Hiroshi Sugimoto, known for his soft focus and atmospheric depth, and James Turrell, who works with light and space, I experimented with blur, contrast, and composition to create a sense of movement and depth. By stripping away distractions, I wanted to encourage a slower, more contemplative way of seeing.

To enhance the impact, I chose a triptych format, allowing the images to interact with each other while maintaining their individual strengths. This arrangement creates a visual rhythm that guides the viewer’s eye through the series. I researched minimalist photography exhibitions and contemporary display strategies, which influenced my decision on spacing and sequencing. By carefully composing each image, I sought to evoke a dreamlike quality, where light plays a transformative role in redefining space.

This project is deeply personal because it reflects my fascination with how light can reshape perception. I find beauty in the small, often overlooked moments where shadows create patterns and reflections alter surfaces. Through this work, I hope viewers take a moment to slow down and appreciate these fleeting interactions between light and space in their own surroundings.

If I had more time, I would have experimented further with different times of day to capture varied lighting conditions. I would also explore different focal lengths and print sizes to see how scale affects the perception of the work. These elements could have added new dimensions to the project, enhancing its emotional and visual impact.
