I photograph the city as a laboratory of light and time. My practice merges fine-art intent with the unpredictability of the street, using geometry, reflections, and slow shutter speeds to balance between what is permanent and ephemeral. My photography exists in the limbo between the raw reality of the street and the concepts in my mind. This photograph was made on a metro platform in Istanbul as the car moved through the frame. By selecting a slow shutter speed and a steady pan, I anchor the human presence while allowing everything else to blur into motion. The result alludes to quantum thinking: measure position and speed is lost; prioritize speed and position dissolves. Photography, too, is a form of measurement—each exposure an observation collapsing possibilities into a single moment. The mystery that remains is what I love most.
