Atmospheric colour fields emerge from constructed miniature landscapes shaped by shifting encounters with sunlight across different geographies. Cycles of tropical brightness and rain contrast with the muted transitions of temperate seasons, informing compositions that oscillate between the familiar and the surreal.
Through pigments, model-making materials, and controlled illumination, photography becomes a site of experimentation. Light is treated as both subject and medium, revealing the full spectrum of visible colour while expanding the perceptual possibilities of the photographic image.
