In 2025, comet C/2025 X1 struck Earth. Everything vanished: life, infrastructures, digital memory. Centuries later, an alien civilization discovers, buried in the ruins of a photography museum, a series of analog prints depicting stones. With no metadata or captions, they become the only clues to speculate on the shape of the lost world. Stones, seemingly […]

In a city shaped by recurring violence and looming collapse, the sea offers quiet resistance – a fragile, persistent rhythm of continuity. Beirut, Recurring Dream explores the Mediterranean coastline not as an escape, but as a space for emotional survival and repair. Drawing on personal memory and collective experience, it reflects on our return to […]

This project reflects a constant, looming threat that deforms the logic of everyday life. Born from the russian war in Ukraine this state of perpetual waiting has become a way of living. Joy is endangered, gradually replaced by invasive grief. Each happy moment feels rare — like an encounter with a vanishing species.I use solarization, […]

What does ‘life after extinction’ mean at the quantum scale? This project explores quantum computing hardware through experimental darkroom techniques, revealing strange afterlives in our advanced technologies. Through mordançage and lith printing, I transform photographs of quantum systems into visceral representations of coherence, collapse, and emergence.Each print undergoes chemical interventions that fracture the emulsion—artifacts echoing […]

“The Most Beautiful Anthropocene” is a cameraless photographic project exploring ecological afterlives in landscapes shaped by environmental collapse. Created using expired, light-exposed darkroom paper and cyanotype chemistry mixed with seawater and rain, each image is co-authored with natural elements such as plants, minerals, and sunlight. From drought-scarred Spain to storm-battered Scottish coasts, the work resists […]

Urgent Paradise reflects on the survival of cultural symbols in a possible future. What remains of nature when nature itself has disappeared? The images—where trunkless palm trees float weightlessly or drift across the sky—seem like fragments of a posthuman world, fragile echoes of something once alive. They appear as relics of a vanished ecology, severed […]

The Rocketgirl Chronicles is an analog photography project born during Melbourne’s extensive lockdowns, a moment that echoed a small-scale extinction. As freedoms and human contact have vanished, a child in a handmade space suit wandered empty streets and parks, reimagining the world with empathy and wonder. These portraits offer a quiet meditation on renewal, where […]

What memories of our existence will remain in the postAnthropocene age? This avant-garde series dovetails one-hundred-year-old negatives with the materiality of rusted steel to create a meditation on the fragility of man. The people featured have been anonymised by time, all that remains of the memory of their lives are the original negatives and these […]

These mordançage photographs imagine a world after extinction, where nature’s remnants and human-made scars coexist in eerie stillness. The lifted emulsion and decayed textures echo the fragmentation of ecosystems overwhelmed by microplastic pollution. Pristine landscapes fade into distorted foregrounds, suggesting beauty’s survival amid collapse. This visual meditation reflects on what endures when life recedes—synthetic traces, […]

Alicja Lesiów in her project “Black Triangle” presents images of the ecological disaster in the Karkonosze and the Jizera Mountains, where destructive human actions have led to the devastation of the forests. Her works are not only a record of the past, but also a warning for the future. Combining digital photographs with abstract photographic […]

Bitter Flight captures and distorts light from Burj El Murr, an unfinished Beirut building whose construction halted with the Civil War in 1975. Once among the tallest, it became a sniper post and detention center. Today, abandoned and too costly to demolish, it remains a perch for birds and a remnant of conflict. The work […]

Our animation film The Last Language is a short pixilation shown on a nostalgic TV set. Pixilation is a photographic animation technique where we pose in small incremental movements to create the illusion of motion. In the late 19th century, pioneers such as Muybridge and Marey experimented with serial photography – the very origin of […]

For the past four years, I’ve been moving from one flat to another across regions. During this time, war conflicts have only intensified, taking thousands of lives. These events often lead me to reflect on the possible end of humanity.I began imagining forests, deserts, and marshes slowly reclaiming the space of my rented flats. Everywhere […]

Originally conceived as a sarcastic take on the End Times biblical prophecy, this series of analog photographs depict sunlight beams dramatically emerging from obscure ocean waters. Visually, they are meant to literally evoke the moment when a ‘eschatological vacuum cleaner’ sucks up all the well-behaved believers right into Heaven. Unfortunately, I was taking a long […]

Chosen Sky 02 is a triptych made from a single photograph of the sky over Lebanon taken in the spring of 2025. Through screen printing, it became evident that the image relies almost entirely on two colours: blue and magenta. No yellow, no black, just these two opposing tones. Chosen Sky 02 is part of […]

Vestiges of the Unearthed is an immersive video and photography based installation that reimagines a post industrial landscape shaped by chemical residue, ecological resilience and spectral beauty. The work speculates on a terrain that appears both terrestrial and extraterrestrial- an altered ecology with resilient forms in unnaturally vivid pigmentations, where human presence lingers through stains, […]

“Min Al Turab” is an experimental photographic series using soil from my village in South Lebanon as pigment in gum dichromate printing. The photos were taken in Spring 2023, before war reshaped the land. The soil, gathered after the destruction, holds the altered reality of a wounded land. The title comes from a sacred verse […]

In 2024 I visited a seahorse farm in Tasmania, Australia. It was founded by a biologist to breed seahorses for the Chinese market and to protect them in the wild. Unfortunately, this didn’t work because they couldn’t keep up with the prices in Asia. They are now sold for aquariums around the world and tours […]

Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has endured a man-made extinction. Entire neighborhoods vanished, streets fell silent, and daily life turned into a struggle for survival. Families were displaced into tents, hunger and cold became constant, and the city’s heartbeat disappeared. These images witness life that persists: a father cooking scraps for his children in a […]

“The Residue of Starlight” examines the desert landscapes of Northern Chile, New Mexico and Western Australia. All three locations face similar risks of increasing temperatures, droughts and wildfires as the climate crisis intensifies. All are also home to cultures that have a distinctly strong connection to the sky, stars and universe beyond Earth. Captured on […]
