MY SUBURBIA

Soon after moving to Virginia in 2020, I began photographing the suburban landscape around me. What started as a way to understand a new environment gradually became a search. The photographs were no longer observations of a place, but traces of an encounter between the landscape and myself.

My Suburbia explores suburban Virginia as both a physical environment and an emotional territory. Streets, houses, parks, fences, and fleeting human gestures become shaped by memory, displacement, and the shifting experience of belonging. Through these ordinary scenes, I look for moments of ambiguity and quiet strangeness; places where the familiar becomes uncertain.
