︎ Title:             Transient Encounters  
︎ Date:            November 2018

This photography project explored urban life around London bus shelters — transient spaces designed for brief pause rather than comfort, where the architecture subtly guides how people linger and move. Using a 35mm camera, I approached strangers for portraits, navigating frequent rejection and the discomfort that came with it. The process pushed me out of my comfort zone while revealing the quiet poetry of fleeting encounters in these in-between spaces.

The developed film revealed pink overtones, likely from overexposure on expired stock. What could have been a flaw instead lent an ethereal quality to the images that enriched the series and reinforced the beauty of embracing unpredictability in art.
