These images created with light flooding my body along wall and object contours suggest the expanse of interior self in a room. Through architecture we find ourselves in relation to space and time that is otherwise limitless and endless. Leading architectural theorists and practitioners inform this work, including renowned Finnish architect Juhani Pallasmaa who said “…I thought that architecture was the buildings out there in the world. I have gradually learned that architecture is a mediation between the world and our minds”.
