The series began as an open photographic inquiry into traces left by time. Collected during walks through forests, roadsides and urban margins, fragments of organic matter and discarded objects were gathered as if they were archaeological findings. Leaves, plastics, worn materials and broken artifacts were approached not as debris but as forms carrying the memory of transformation.
In the studio, each element was photographed in isolation against a neutral ground. Images are presented in diptychs, pairing two objects according to their formal correspondences: curvature, texture, fracture or mass. Black-and-white photographs meet occasional color images, creating subtle shifts between mineral, vegetal and synthetic presences.
Seen together, these fragments evoke a quiet archaeology of the present. Organic matter decomposes, synthetic materials erode, and the boundary between nature and artifact becomes uncertain. The series follows these vestiges as small witnesses of time, where the traces of life, use and decay appear as part of a continuous cycle.
