The Passage of Time -2025

Analog Photography

Inspired by the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, this series explores the beauty of imperfection, impermanence, and self-acceptance through the interaction between a model and a fractured mirror. The cracked mirror symbolizes the marks of time, while golden repairs, inspired by Japanese Kintsugi, highlight how flaws and fractures can transform into sources of unique beauty and strength. Set against a muted, cool-toned background, soft lighting emphasizes the golden cracks, blending fragility with resilience. The model’s fragmented yet authentic reflection represents the journey of growth and renewal, while her minimalist attire embodies simplicity and purity, resonating with Wabi-Sabi’s essence. This work invites viewers to reflect on life’s transient nature, finding meaning and beauty in the imperfect and discovering strength in the act of repair.
