Rooted in an ongoing immersion in Southern Europe and in the wake of the recent discovery that I live with aphantasia — the inability to form images in my mind’s eye, which limits my capacity to anticipate pictures or visually reconstruct memories — this project unfolds through dérive.

I go out in an attentive, open-ended wandering through lived spaces in the search for Grace, fleeting encounters in which the visible seems to touch something beyond itself. In Sergio Larraín’s words, “you walk around in surprise, seeing reality as if it is for the first time.”

It is a process built on slowness and stillness, offering a counterpoint to the dizzying speed of contemporary life. The images inhabit a contemplative territory at the intertwining of many timelines: human, architectural, natural, spiritual. Together, they form a patina, suggesting a sedimentation of what has passed, what remains, and what may still arrive.
