Exit or Escape
A series about the urge to leave—whether from a place or from oneself. The road becomes a metaphor of searching, where light and shadow, exit and entrance intertwine. Each image is a question of identity, without the promise of an answer.

This series explores the human urge to leave—whether from a place, a circumstance, or from ourselves. The road becomes a metaphor for inner searching: it may lead toward light or into shadow, toward the self or away from it. Each image captures a moment of uncertainty, where exit and entrance, escape and return become indistinguishable.
The environments of city and nature transform into stages for a dialogue with personal vulnerability. In these pathways and passages, we see both the fear of being trapped and the desire to be found. The series reflects on identity as a continuous search through liminal spaces, where every road raises a question but offers no clear answer.
