Texture

These photographs were taken on a trip to Porto. The work explores the textures of the environment — stone, tile, fabric, shadow — revealing kinship.

The call of the ocean, a pull toward something vast and ancient. I traced handprints in stone, imagined the ghosts who left them. In moments, I felt like Phoolan Devi, fierce, shifting, ungraspable, then suddenly weightless, suspended between water and sky. Floating.
