Echoes of Transition

Echoes of Transition is a poetic essay inspired by a
collection of images taken in different countries around the world. Details of the craft and architectural personalities of a building are reflected on their doors. This series of photographs are stories of this threshold we all go through in many stages of our lives.

A point in the middle. A bridge is just a path between spaces. Two points in time. New directions often offer the promise of a new beginning. We follow a mental architecture where we construct a new story on the other side.
A better self, a place without the present pain, or just a gas station on the highway of life.

Architecture creates a daily choreography in the lives of the people who interact with their lines and walls. Just like a dance, each person follows a direction when entering a building. The structure dictates the number of steps, up or down through light or dark in order to reach a destination inside. A dance that lasts days, weeks or decades. The entrance of each building holds the vastness of stories in their lines, colors and details. Each door has a personality and represents that threshold in time, a journey between exterior and interior.
Photography is that wonderful medium that allows us to capture the impermanence of our world. Echoes of transition is a collection of interpretations of these stories. Inspired through a point of entry to the next stage in someone’s life transition.
