We often avoid thinking about impermanence, treating ageing as an unpleasant reality rather than a natural progression. Yet, there is an inherent richness in growing older, a wisdom that youth is still striving to become. The lines on our faces hint at the stories lived within our fleeting existence.
I use alternative photography to capture this same transient state in nature. Long after a flower blooms and begins to fade, it retains a distinct, imperfect elegance. By harnessing the sun to record these fading botanicals, I hope to illuminate the grace found in every chapter of life.
