/ Found Light

One eye, moving slowly through the world.

Not documentary, not fine art — something between. The work is made by reading a place's specific light before anything else.

Wide panoramic environmental frame looking down a sun-bleached Portuguese alley, morning light entering from the far end and pooling on cracked tile and plaster walls, no people, architectural geometry, shot from standing height with generous sky visible at the far opening

— The practice

Light-first. Place-specific.

Each place gets its own hour, its own angle. Nothing is color-graded to match the last destination. The work changes because the light changes.

I wait until a location shows something true about itself — a specific texture, a moment where geography and light converge. That is the frame.
