Urban Perception - Exhibition
Urban Perception: Seeing What We’ve Stopped Noticing
On February 9, 2013, I presented my work publicly for the first time. The occasion was a philosophical and artistic evening curated by IPuP, and it marked the beginning of something deeply personal — my journey into photographic storytelling.
A Study in Everyday Blindness
“Urban Perception” was born out of a question: What happens when we stop seeing the spaces we move through every day? Cities are full of human-made structures — patterns, shapes, layers of meaning — but the more familiar they become, the more invisible they seem.
This project was an invitation to look again. To notice.
Photography Meets Installation
Rather than simply hanging photographs on a wall, I created a three-dimensional installation that mirrored the concept of visual disconnection. Each photo was suspended in a web of yarn — black, pink, and blue — woven in patterns that echoed architectural forms captured in the images.
Some threads ended in mid-air. Others connected back to the photos themselves. The result was a tactile, immersive structure that required viewers to step in and move around the work — to become physically aware of what they were seeing.
A Personal Milestone
This exhibition was not just about urban space but it was about my own perception. It was the first time I translated my way of seeing into something I could share publicly. The response encouraged me to keep going, and to keep turning observations into visual stories.
Special thanks to Panossoundso for photographing the event.
