Photography, Printed on Transparent Paper

This series is the result of photographing the sky every day for 365 consecutive days; a continuous practice of looking, recording, and engaging with the passage of time. Each week is presented as an individual print on a long, semi-transparent sheet of paper, a material that allows the images to overlap, fade, and form layers resembling fragments of memory.

For me, these images are not merely records of changes in the sky; they have become a personal archive of a particular period of time. Each photograph carries a specific moment, a daily atmosphere, and a memory that can perhaps only be retrieved through this repeated act of observation.

In this project, the sky becomes a space for recording lived experience: a constant background that remains present alongside the changes of everyday life and functions like a visual diary, tracing the passage of days. The work reflects on the relationship between observation, memory, and the way seemingly ordinary moments become part of personal remembrance.
