Minute Discoveries (2021)

 

I first began capturing images for Minute Discoveries in 2021, during a time when I was still uncovering my artistic voice and visual language. Photography was a process of curiosity and experimentation, deepening my understanding of both myself and the world around me.

 

As I navigated life as an undergraduate in the following years, photography became a creative outlet which allowed me to process my emotions, to reflect and express myself. Those were years of exploration and resilience, shaping my understanding of who I am and who I hope to become.

 

Now, stepping into my next phase of life, I find myself on yet another path of anticipation and uncertainty. I trust that this journey, like those before it, will be one of self-discovery, an opportunity to further define my voice and navigate the intersections of art, work, and personal growth.

​

Minute Discoveries explores light, darkness, and time to present a dual narrative of small revelations and the profound search for purpose. The title plays on ‘minute’ to highlight both fleeting moments and the significance of each passing minute.

 

Through the deliberate use of slow shutter speed, blurred images are produced, inviting viewers into a realm where time unfolds slowly, revealing hidden beauty in transient details. This intentional blurring also serves as a metaphor for the evolving and uncertain journey of self-discovery. The interplay of light and shadow mirrors the complexity of human experience, symbolising both challenges and joy.
