Walking Surfaces – Series I

Walking Surfaces – Series I

A Black & White Conceptual Photo Series

This collection of 12 conceptual black and white photographs captures the diversity of surfaces we walk on every day. Each image features my own feet, wearing seasonal footwear, at the bottom of the frame, while the rest reveals the unique textures of pavements, streets, brick paths, asphalt, fallen leaves, and more.

Minimalist yet rich in detail, these photographs explore the relationship between human presence and the ground beneath us – a subtle reminder that every step has its own story.
