nocturne
A quiet, meditative exploration of presence and absence of the world at night. Captured over a brief span of twenty-four minutes on the night of December 29th, 2023, it is marked by an acute attention to the textures of darkness and the way artificial light briefly reveals—and disturbs—what the night prefers to keep hidden. There is no narrative, only atmosphere. No climax, only the steady hum of the world continuing, almost indifferent to being seen.
Together, the photographs offer a contemplative record of a fleeting slice of night in an act of quiet witnessing.
Nocturne gives the night back to itself, altered only by the fact that, for a moment, it was seen.
Digital photography, 2023.
