what if…

photography could teach you not only how to manage information but to see it?

About

Photography serves as an empirical exploration of practicing greater consciousness of our relationship to information. Each captured image documents our awareness engaging with real-world information - water, light, and environmental uncertainty that mirror the complexity we navigate daily. Through systematic visual practice, "What if?" becomes the question that opens consciousness to new possibilities.
