Work from the series When Soft Voices Die

WHEN SOFT VOICES DIE

“Music, when soft voices die,

Vibrates in the memory;

Odours, when sweet violets sicken,

Live within the sense they quicken.”

Percy Bysshe Shelley

This project arises from a question: How do you photograph absence?

From this search, the images try to approach that which can no longer be fully retained. Photography stops functioning only as a record and becomes a space of invocation.

Paradoxically, it is in the materiality of Polaroid film that absence takes on a body, where the void takes shape, introducing a physical and ritual dimension into the experience of the image, which is traversed by different processes.
