︎ Title: Transient Encounters
︎ Date: November 2018
︎ Location: London
In the bustling streets of London, during the vibrant year of 2018, a photography project unfolded, capturing the essence of fleeting moments and the beauty found within chance encounters. Tasked with the challenge of photographing strangers with a 35mm camera, the artist embarked on a journey through the fast-paced cityscape, seeking connections in the midst of the bustling crowds. Rejection became an inevitable part of the process, as hurried passersby brushed off the opportunity to be immortalized through the lens.
However, amidst the challenges and rejections, a serendipitous magic emerged. The film photographs, unintentionally overexposed, embraced a mesmerizing pink hue that infused the images with an ethereal quality. This unintentional yet fortuitous effect created a sense of surrealism and dreamlike wonder. The portraits, bathed in a rosy glow, evoke a profound sense of temporality and evoke introspection into the transient nature of our encounters and the ephemeral beauty of the human experience.

︎ Title: Temporal Reverie
︎ Date: March 2019
︎ Location: Jeddah
"Temporal Reverie” is a set design project set in an abandoned supermarket in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The installation explores the themes of temporality and light, transforming the forgotten space into a realm of poetic resonance. Delicate fabric veils cascade from the weathered walls, creating an ethereal dance with the sunlit ambiance. The interplay between light and texture casts enchanting patterns and diffused glows, turning the space into a resplendent cathedral of shifting hues. Shadows intertwine with the folds, adding an enigmatic touch. This immersive installation invites introspection, encouraging viewers to reflect upon the impermanence of human endeavors and discover the profound beauty that emerges from embracing fleeting moments.
However, as the winds of change swept through the urban landscape, the abandoned supermarket and its ephemeral transformation became a poignant chapter in the city's ever-evolving story. Today, the once-majestic structure has been reclaimed by the inexorable force of progress, and its weathered walls and delicate fabric veils have vanished into the annals of memory. Demolition has left behind a void, an echo of the artistic resonance that once animated this forgotten space. The land now stands bare, silent, and awaiting its fate, marked with a 'for sale' sign that hangs as a melancholic reminder of the transience that envelops our human endeavors.

︎ Proposal: Kingston Concert Hall
︎ Date: May 2023
︎ Location: Kingston Upon Thames
In response to the lack of character prevalent in modern residential tower blocks, the proposed concert hall with residential housing in Kingston emerges as a visionary solution that celebrates both architectural innovation and community spirit. Inspired by the historical charm of medieval bottle kilns, this project seamlessly integrates past influences with contemporary functionality, offering a transformative space that is vital to the community.
The concert hall, serving as the architectural centerpiece, captures the essence of harmonious living and artistic expression. By repurposing the bottle kilns into a theater in the round and a rehearsal space, the design revitalizes the heritage of the area while addressing the need for intimate and immersive performance venues. This visionary approach goes beyond the ordinary, fostering a deep sense of character and identity within the community.
Surrounding the concert hall, the residential housing for musicians and staff exemplifies the project's commitment to infusing character into modern living spaces. As an antidote to impersonal tower blocks, the design provides a nurturing environment that encourages meaningful interactions, artistic collaboration, and a strong sense of belonging. By blending shared spaces with private sanctuaries, the residential component becomes a vibrant community that breathes life into the project and celebrates the unique qualities of each individual.
