STAIRMAZE
A complex arrangement of metal staircases, part of the blast furnaces at Belval in Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg. This structure symbolizes the region’s industrial heritage. The intertwined stairs and platforms, seemingly chaotic, provide an efficient and well-thought-out solution for accessing various levels of the facility.

ILLUSIONARY STAIRS
This photograph captures illusions created by the ornamental stonework of the stairs through light and shadow. Each perspective challenges the viewer and plays with the perception of space and structure. The window serves as a key to deciphering the real perspective. This work reflects my fascination with the interplay of minimalist and abstract forms.

It’s a testament to the personal yet anonymous nature of urban living, where each window provides a different frame that subtly narrates the uniqueness of its inhabitants and their stories. Captured through a lens that finds symmetry and art in our everyday surroundings.

RUST & RESILIENCE
The image portrays a stark industrial landscape, a complex web of metal and strength now silenced by time. Each rusted beam and weathered surface tells a story of a robust industrial past, now yielding to stillness and contemplation. It’s a canvas where history’s tangible essence intersects with contemporary reflections, challenging viewers to ponder the cyclical nature of progress and the enduring marks we leave on the world. This scene, absent of human presence yet laden with human influence, quietly poses questions about the lessons we take forward and the lasting echoes we leave behind.
