Conversations with Light

This series is an ongoing dialogue with light
as subject, as material, as a participant.

Using cyanotype, I work on natural canvas, linen and cotton paper,
where sunlight directly shapes each piece.

A gesture begins the process
a mark, a reservation, a shift in the surface
and from there, the material answers.

The sun, the hour, the season
quietly influence what unfolds.
Blues deepen or fade, tones emerge and dissolve.

What follows is a balance between intention and letting go,
between guiding and listening.

Over time, each piece develops through this exchange.
Together, they form a conversation
between light, time, and material.
