Echo

This series begins with a rose petal—an familiar element that, once removed from its natural context, distances itself from its original function and enters spaces to which it does not belong. In each image, the same petal appears again, yet each time it seems to become something else: a wound, flesh, blood, a body, a trace, or simply a colored surface. What changes is not the object itself, but the relationship it establishes with space, scale, light, and the viewer’s gaze. Meaning emerges not from the image itself, but from the distance between what we know and what we see. This displacement disrupts the stability of the image. Each photograph calls the reading of the previous one into question, creating a new possibility for seeing the same element. The rose petal is no longer a subject to be photographed; it becomes a tool for examining the instability of perception. “Echo” is not about the repetition of an image; it is about the repetition of the moment in which meaning is reconstructed. Each image is not an echo of the previous image, but an echo of the viewer’s gaze.
