In Public, Apart

This series examines how people occupy shared urban space while remaining inwardly separate. Moving between moments of crowding and openness, the photographs attend to posture, gesture, and distance rather than direct interaction. Individuals pass through the same environments and rhythms, briefly aligning within common systems of movement before separating again. Seen together, the images describe a public life shaped less by encounter than by coexistence, where proximity does not lead to connection and individuals remain quietly apart.
