Daily Scenarios - places, strangeness and quiet

My photographic sketchbook centres on the quiet strangeness of everyday places — those overlooked corners where the familiar slips into something more uncertain. I am drawn to locations that seem to hold their breath: stairwells washed in muted light, pavements marked by passing shadows, rooms where traces of presence linger after the moment has gone. In these ordinary spaces, a subtle tension emerges, as if the world is quietly rearranging itself just out of view. Through a contemplative, pictorial approach, I treat each place as a silent stage where small, uncanny shifts unfold. The camera becomes a way of sketching these atmospheres, catching the fragile interplay between stillness and disquiet. Objects appear slightly out of place, gestures soften into abstraction, and the everyday becomes tinged with a gentle otherness. By lingering with these strange and quiet places, my work seeks to reveal the layered poetry of the mundane spaces where the known becomes mysterious, and where silence invites the imagination to wander. The photographs offer a slowed way of seeing, inviting viewers to enter the hush of these moments and sense the subtle transformations hidden within the ordinary.
