Traces of Presence is a photographic series documents spaces where human presence is felt without being directly shown. Working across everyday environments, the images focus on marks, arrangements, wear, and residual traces that suggest use, care, and absence.

Rather than centering the human figure, the work attends to what remains: surfaces worn by touch, objects left in place, paths shaped through repeated movement. These traces point to relationships between people, environments, and time, without fixing them to individual identities or narratives.

By withholding the body, the photographs create space for slower looking and quieter forms of attention. The absence of people becomes an ethical gesture, allowing environments to speak through what they hold and remember. This practice reflects on how presence is registered over time, and how landscapes and objects carry collective memory through use, maintenance, and gradual change.
