Fragments of structures

Find me on:
Across the spreads, the real “noise and murk” of the environment — defocus, trembling forms, shifting contrast — merges with graphic distortions: glitch, line displacement, digital vibration. Physical and digital dissolution intertwine into a single visual flow, where distortion becomes a way of seeing differently. Between the layers, short textual impressions are hidden — almost unreadable, like a memory losing its contours.
Process
In this project, I decided to fully immerse myself in this idea and dedicate my spreads to it, allowing “noise” and “blur” to become the main elements, while the physical and digital layers interact and dissolve into each other.
For me, this work is about connecting the sensory and the formal.
For me, this work is about connecting the sensory and the formal.
The sensory appears in fragments of text, which seem to hide within the images, breaking into pieces and acting only as echoes of the lived moment. The formal resides in structure, digital distortions, the rhythm of repeating lines, and the controlled disruption of form. Here, textures are not just a background but traces of my real presence in these places — visual imprints of being there.
I have always been interested in exploring the intersection of real textures and digital space — a place where material experience can smoothly transition into the graphic, and vice versa.
