Part of my ongoing project 70% Water. Exhibited in collaboration with Atelier de Lisboa in 2025 as a group show.
I wonder, can you be homesick for a place that does not exist?
Halfway Home is the outcome of a year-long journey through the Process & Production course at Atelier de Lisboa, led by Martim Ramos. For me, this exhibition feels like milestone in a bigger shift—it's the first time I’ve really started working with photography as a medium, which I have explored through analog (with special thanks to my dad, and his collection of cameras), digital, and water-based processes.

Throughout the year, I’ve used the camera to investigate subjects that have forever been close to my heart—the ocean, marine life, and people’s emotional and physical connection to water. These themes are intertwined with more internal explorations: the search for belonging, the pull between movement and stillness, and the desire to find steadiness amid change.

"Halfway Home" reflects a moment in that search—neither fully settled nor completely adrift. It is an ode to going with this flow we call life, to discovering that home might not be a place, but a feeling that lives within.
