Reinterpreting urban density as a celestial mosaic. By looking directly upward, the iconic yellow architecture of Rotterdam is transformed into a symmetrical frame that captures the sky in a perfect star shape, turning a structured dwelling into a balanced, dreamlike gateway between the earth and the heavens.

A photographer based in Taiwan, specializing in capturing the rhythmic beauty of architecture through the lens of a smartphone. My work focuses on the delicate balance of light, shadow, and geometric order, seeking to transform urban structures into minimalist art.
