THE MEMORY OF WASTE – CYANOLUMEN PRINTS, 2026

Traces sculpted by organic decay, chemistry, and sunlight.



This work explores the hidden potential of discarded organic matter — remnants of life already destined for transformation. Through experimentation, I allow these fragments to leave a trace, pressing their shifting essence onto photographic paper.

The interaction between organic compositions, silver salts, and cyanotype chemistry creates unpredictable, unrepeatable images — where decay becomes creation, and what was once waste is reborn as form, texture, and memory.
