Modern day science fiction photography and images.
Archiving Childhood
Photography is an everyday habit now, with our phones being an extension of ourselves and the camera app being an extra set of eyes. We don’t just take photos to capture a beautiful moment. We snap photos to remember confirmation numbers, parking sign details, or even an interesting book we want to look up later.

Tools That Empower and Tools That Numb
A tool is never neutral in its effect, even when it may be neutral in its design. What a tool does to a person depends not only on what it enables, but also on what it quietly replaces. A hammer extends the hand. A calculator extends memory. A map extends orientation. Each tool amplifies a capacity, but each one also changes the relationship between effort and outcome.
