VELVET
Velvet is a body of work made when the world is quiet and dark. Light and color isolate fragments of this landscape, drawing the viewer into a quiet mystery. Yet an undercurrent of unease persists—shaped by darkness and the unknown it holds. What lies just beyond the motel stairs? Is the idling car simply waiting, or watching? Stray horses move through the streets, searching for food in the trash; one lifts its injured hoof. Their presence echoes a broader vulnerability—spaces where safety feels uncertain, and never equally held. Each image hovers between beauty and precarity, where the visible and the hidden remain in tension.
