Paper, Poster, and Pixels

Paper, Poster, and Pixels” explores the infinite and cyclical nature of being. A Soho wall layered with fading posters becomes an urban abstraction shaped by time. Through color, light, and composition, the image expresses the paradox of being- all things are finite yet infinite, ended yet endless.
