This series captures the fleeting presence of wildlife, hidden within untamed nature, symbolising the gradual vanishing of species. As human footprints encroach ever deeper into natural habitats, these images serve as a haunting reminder of the delicate balance that is being disrupted. The hidden creatures, once thriving and abundant, now fade into obscurity, their echoes becoming faint memories in the wilderness we increasingly estrange ourselves from. Through this visual narrative, we are called to reflect on the urgency of preserving these precious environments and their silent guardians.
