Works during the artistic residency at Space A, Kathmandu, Nepal・October 2026 ✴︎

✴︎ a natural diary, Garden of Dreams ✴︎
Part of an ongoing visual and material research, this series emerges from a slow observation of the living environment at the Garden of Dreams in Kathmandu. Through fragments of plants, textures, light, and organic transformations, the images trace an intimate encounter with the rhythms and temporalities of the natural world. Photography becomes a practice of attention: a way of inhabiting a place, collecting traces, and exploring the fragile relations between human and more-than-human life. Rather than representing nature as something separate, A Natural Diary approaches it as a space of coexistence, transformation, and interdependence.
In Nepal, the series becomes another fragment of a personal atlas of encounters, reflecting on slowness, impermanence, and attention as forms of care.

✴︎ Series of Sikali Jatra, Khokana, Nepal ✴︎
I arrived in Khokana knowing nothing about Sikali Jatra or the Newar culture from which this celebration emerges. During my stay in Kathmandu, I had the opportunity to draw closer to a culture rich in traditions, gestures, and forms of relation. The photographs made during the procession capture fragments of this encounter: the deities moving through the village, the bodies accompanying them, and the people taking part in the celebration. A gaze shaped by curiosity and attentiveness, aware that approaching a culture also means acknowledging what remains to be learned.
