Nebulae

Silver Gelatin Print, 20 x 24 inches

This work explores the intersection of materiality and perception through the use of cameraless photography and light-sensitive materials. Blurred boundaries, diffused light, and deep shadows intertwine like gas and dust drifting through distant galaxies, alluding to a hidden order emerging from cosmic chaos.

The imagery draws inspiration from the astronomical concept of the nebula, evoking not only the vastness of the universe but also its metaphorical resonance—a state of uncertainty, impermanence, and latent vitality. Rather than documenting reality, the work seeks to summon the invisible, presenting light as both subject and agent: a mediator between the material and the spiritual. Light takes on fluid forms before settling into dense, emotive matter.

Through processes that embrace unpredictability and transformation, this piece invites the viewer to search for meaning within ambiguity—to enter a space where dissolution and emergence coexist. It is within this perceptual indeterminacy that viewers are encouraged to discover a cosmos of their own.
