Night Light
Night Light is about the constructed environment. The images in this series are drawn from the landscape of industrial enclaves, highways and commercial strips, unified by night, and the artificial light penetrating the darkness.
They represent a mysterious and distorted world of exaggerated and unnatural color, reflected light, and fragments of illuminated signage which appear like messages sent out into an uninhabited world. Night Light envisions an environment of the ephemeral, a world made up of the disposable components of the industrial environment.

Disintegration/Reconstruction
Disintegration/Reconstruction, explored the image of the dissolving city. In these images disintegrating and evanescent forms create a continuity between disparate elements and reflect the discontinuity, rupture and devastation of the urban environment. Through common elements of the architectural and ornamental vocabulary, are interwoven contrasts of embellishment and abandonment, connection and dislocation, beauty and ugliness, past and present, identity and anonimity.


Images from left to right-
