Confluence | 2019

I walk, I pass people, and I see their faces. Initially, it was just a moment for me, but over time, I began to see the reflection of all their problems in their faces and behavior. I witnessed their sadness, frustration, and disappointment. The lack of hope for the future and the difficult living conditions have led to isolation and depression. I saw them struggling with themselves, talking to themselves, and reacting with anger to the slightest provocation. This series was photographed on the streets, shaped by my own identity and social experience. I am part of them, sharing all their problems, concerns, and the challenges that lie ahead.

While photographing on the street, I was thinking about the moments when bodies meet, when we are next to each other and maybe look at each other for a moment before passing by. Perhaps we exchange glances briefly and then move on. I capture this moment, but I wonder if these confluences of bodies are important to others.

I don't stand on the street; I wander. These photos document the presence and cofluance of my body with others.
