My work explores the daily choreography of survival and tenderness in the streets of an unrelenting metropolis. Beyond the noise and the crowd, this series seeks out moments of pause, silent interactions, and gestures that reveal the city’s deep human pulse.

Through my lens, I explore a constant duality: the visible weight of labor and struggle, set against the invisible light of a caress or a shared conversation. The images move between the oppressive scale of the environment and the intimacy of its inhabitants, creating a dialogue between generations, between tradition and a fragmented modernity.

"That Which Weighs, That Which Shines" is not a portrait of a place, but of the human condition. It is a testimony to the extraordinary dignity that blooms in the cracks of the pavement—an ode to the resilience of the spirit that, each day, finds a reason to carry on.
