Selected works

six frames, six cities

A lone figure in a blue jacket waits on a snow-covered elevated train platform, tracks vanishing into the white void of a blizzard New York — Winter Night Construction worker in a hi-vis orange jacket kneels at a scaffolding base beneath a towering billboard, the advertisement filling the frame above him, grey London sky beyond London — Worker & Billboard
Woman in brown headscarf and leather gloves beams directly into the lens, crowd dissolving behind her on Inauguration Day New York — Headscarf Smile Durian vendor seated in his mobile cart at night, knife in hand, looking directly at the camera, whole durian fruits surrounding him, an ATM and purple-lit vending machine glowing behind Bangkok — Durian, Between Worlds
Woman with round glasses and a gentle half-smile sits in a train seat, black and white, soft window light falling across her face Milano — Train Seat Man on a bicycle and a woman with one hand raised face each other on an empty Osaka street corner at night, a red do not cross sign above them Osaka — Night Crossing
