Anxiety + Altitude

Born from a fear of flying, this series started as a way to feel safer in the air. I always choose the window seat. I watch the horizon, trace the light, and photograph to calm my mind. What began as a simple distraction slowly became something much more meaningful. From above, the world softens and transforms, rivers look like veins, fields become patterns, landscapes turn into quiet abstractions. The distance creates space to see differently, and over time, that view became part of my visual language. Alongside the images made during flights, drone photographs extend this perspective, allowing me to explore remote formations, subtle geometries, and the delicate marks time leaves on the land.
