We Used To Live Around Here

This project explores the profound sense of disconnection that defines the modern experience—both from our surroundings and from within ourselves. In an era where physical presence is increasingly mediated by digital interfaces, the figures in these works exist in a state of suspended isolation, seemingly together yet fundamentally alone.

Each composition is constructed by compositing two distinct photographs of the same model into a singular, digitally created environment. This duality creates a visual echo—a "glitch" in reality where the subject confronts a version of themselves that feels familiar yet unreachable. The digital backgrounds are deliberately constructed to feel slightly "off," enhancing the uncanny feeling of a world that is not quite home.

By placing these twin figures in fabricated spaces, the work questions the authenticity of our interactions and the spaces we inhabit. The characters do not interact; they occupy the same coordinates but different emotional realities. They are ghosts in a machine, navigating a landscape that—like memory or a dream—is a reconstruction rather than a recording of reality. This series is a meditation on the solitude of the digital age, where we are constantly reflected back at ourselves, yet remain disconnected from the tangible world.
