Black & white photograms on Ilford satin RC deluxe photographic paper (50.8 x 61 cm)

​​

​

‘Biosis’ explores the spaces that exist between transparency and opacity, presence and absence, form and trace. The works begin as glass sculptures; objects whose interiors are normally inaccessible, even invisible. Through the photogram process, these forms are exposed directly onto light-sensitive paper, revealing the internal densities, stresses, and imperfections held within the glass. What appears is neither the object nor its shadow, but a luminous record of the hidden: membrane-like textures, cellular clusters, and growths that suggest biological life without ever depicting it. These images exist in a state of in-between; part sculpture, part photograph, part specimen; capturing what lies behind and beneath the surface. They make visible what is usually sealed away, offering a glimpse into the quiet, secret architectures of matter.
