blueform (2024–)

Blueforms begin as photographs of clear blue skies, which I develop until they degrade. At their breaking point, patterns begin to appear: rippling fields, granular textures, wave-like distortions, and the visible artifacts of the camera sensor itself.

Everything can only be pushed so far before it breaks; an image, a person, a world. If a thing is forced to become something other than itself to exist, the transformation raises questions of identity. Does its new form reveal its true nature, or does it mark a loss? And when the real sky is pushed further than it can tolerate, what will the consequences be?
