Spatial Memories

This series explores space as a collective and emotional experience rather than a fixed physical environment. Through layered compositions, fragmented figures, gestures, atmospheres, and shifting spatial cues, the works examine how public and shared spaces are felt, remembered, negotiated, and imagined differently by those who occupy them. Drawing from memory, conversation, architecture, and social ritual, the series considers space as something continuously shaped through perception, coexistence, and exchange.
