I shoot strangers on 35mm. We don’t always speak. But I always wonder what stays with them after they leave.

These portraits are captured in silence, layered with voicenotes and soundscapes that don’t explain — they suggest. Some are real. Some are fiction. All are fragments.

This is an ongoing archive of the in-between.

fragments.

i never meant to make a project.

i just kept capturing strangers whose presence lingered.

 

moments that felt like a journal entry with no title.

surrounded by strangers is what happens when you mix film, voice, memory.

 

it’s not polished. it’s real. it’s slow.

it’s intimacy without ownership.

 

i’m building this project in public now. if you’ve ever felt something soft in silence— this is for you.
