21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Sentiments

This project is an exploration of the minimalism of the city. Captivated by the clean lines, symmetry, and interplay of light and shadow, the city's essence is distilled into abstract compositions. The project seeks to showcase how minimalism can be found in the most ordinary of moments and how beauty can be revealed in the most chaotic and crowded of places. The photos are an invitation to look at the world from a new and different perspective and to find beauty in abstract forms and lines.
