I approach cinematography from an auteurist and independent perspective, exploring cinematography, visual storytelling without dialogue, the use of black and white, emotional lighting, and visual symbolism. My focus is on creating raw, intimate, and psychological images, where each shot functions as a self-contained piece within a personal cinematic language.

My work explores cinematic text through the lens of the personal diary, the visual essay, and fragmented narrative, addressing psychology, memory, and perception from a raw and personal perspective.

I approach video as a space for emotional observation: minimalist storytelling, a dark aesthetic, and an exploration of everyday life through an intimate and fragmented lens.

I take the audio apart and rebuild it from scratch: I record real spaces, create soundscapes, use silence as a counterweight, create foley effects, and manipulate sounds until they become emotion; I edit and time each layer so it either complements or contradicts the image, I work with depth and space, I add or remove music depending on what the scene demands, I leave mistakes in if they tell the truth, and I either strip everything down to the essentials or plunge it into chaos; here, sound does not merely accompany; it sustains and reveals.
