Mobility.
Mobility explores the dynamics of movement, transition, and the spaces in between. Through photography, the project captures fleeting moments where human presence meets urban rhythm and technological flow. It examines how we navigate modern environments: physically, emotionally, and visually. Imperfection, blur, and distortion are not errors but traces of perception in motion. Each image invites the viewer to pause within movement, to sense the poetry of transit. Mobility is both a study of motion and a meditation on stillness within it.
Data. Our movemments are ruled by data. Schedules arrivals and departures are displayed constantly changing. Standing still and observing the information, digits become pixel swirling around.
Old bikes. Remnants of personal mobility, now tight together unable to move.
In transit. Waiting and commuting and waiting. Humans become indistinct objects without individuality if seen from a moving vehicule.
Power lines. Without power lines modern transport and, hence, mobility is not possible; furthermore, they symbolize the connection between points on the grid.
Escalator. People running and rushing—melting into a stream of colors.
Frankfurt (Main) Süd. A moment of stillness within motion—the station holds its breath as the train becomes a blur, embodying the quiet geometry of transit and the fleeting nature of movement itself..
