“Photographs are made on the frontlines of life.”
FLUX Vol. I
57 photographs made over thirteen days in Shinjuku, Harajuku, and Shibuya — marking the moment a decade of photographing and years of working in monochrome converged into a unified vision. Shot on a Ricoh GR in high-contrast black and white, embracing instinct, motion, and the fleeting rhythm of everyday life.
You cannot make the same photograph twice.
FLUX Vol. II
55 photographs marking the beginning of a transformation — the first months of working in black and white, and the origin of a daily photographic practice rooted in observation, instinct, and repetition. A chronological visual diary where photographing becomes inseparable from living.
The photograph becomes the act of living.
FLUX Vol. III
52 photographs made across Philadelphia, New York City, and Costa Rica — marking an expansion of the practice as it moves through new environments, rhythms, and experiences. A continuation of the transformation, grounded in walking, observing, and responding to the world in motion.
To walk is to see. To see is to respond.
FLUX Vol. IV
54 photographs marking a return — a deeply personal body of work shaped by identity, heritage, and faith. Made in and around churches, where photographing merges with reflection, stillness, and a search for meaning.
In stillness, the light reveals something deeper.
Flux Archive I
218 photographs across 400+ pages, bringing together Flux Vol. I–IV into a single continuous visual diary. A chronological record of a daily photographic practice — tracing its beginning, expansion across places, and return inward toward identity, memory, and faith.
A document of attention. A document of presence.
