There are some stories that can’t be told in words alone.
Everything That Isn’t There is a black-and-white photography series born from loss. It began not as a project, but as a response—a way to survive what felt unsurvivable. Grief stripped everything down to the bone. And what was left? The instinct to create.
This work isn’t about death, but about the silence that follows. The absence. The spaces left behind. Each image is a conversation with the void. A quiet moment with what remains when everything else is gone. No answers. Just presence.
I return to black-and-white because color feels like too much when you’re carrying absence. Light and shadow speak more honestly. They reveal the textures of sorrow and the quiet dignity of endurance. I’m not trying to document grief as an outsider. I’m living inside it, and these photographs are my way of breathing.
Everything That Isn’t There isn’t just my story. It’s for anyone who has felt hollowed out by loss and found themselves reaching for something real to hold onto. If you're reading this, maybe you've carried something too heavy to name. Maybe you’ve tried to make sense of the dark. This is for you.
Thank you for looking. For witnessing. For being part of what remains.
