The Sky Is The Limit

This work explores the enduring impact of industrialization through the lens of Canary Wharf, London. What once symbolized progress—the port, chimneys, and factories—now reveal disruption and fragility under a transformed sky. Through inversion techniques, light becomes shadow and colors ignite into surreal, burning atmospheres that mirror an altered climate. The skyline, saturated with extraordinary hues and light, evokes a city suspended between human ambition and ecological consequence. These subtle yet powerful images invite reflection on our changing world and the urgent need to respond before it’s too late.

524 Weeks Left

This series emphasizes on the legacy of industrialization and its silent cost: the warming of our world. The port, the chimneys, the factories—symbols of progress—now speak of disruption, excess, and fragility. Each photograph reveals a world upside down. They have been created through a process of inversion, negatives turned into positives, where light becomes shadow and colors erupt into explosive, unreal skies. These skies, often darkened, burning, or almost surreal, are not mere aesthetic choices; they are metaphors for the state of our atmosphere, disturbed, altered, and transmuted by human intervention. What remains are landscapes of a post-industrial New York, at once powerful and unsettling, where light and shadow exchange roles and the atmosphere itself seems to question us. These works do not shout; they whisper. And in their whisper lies a reminder: the climate is changing, and its memory is longer than ours. Yet their message is clear: How long can we remain indifferent, and will we act before it is too late?
