EXUVIA is a series of images that behave like archaeological relics — fragments emerging from an unknown time. Each work is a trace, a fossil: not revealing but enduring, like the skin shed by a body after molting. Exuviae, from Latin, meaning “what is taken away,” suggests a metamorphic vision: what remains is no longer the body, but its shell, its residual imprint.

Bodies, faces, trees, shadows — everything that surfaces is marked by a tension between presence and disappearance. These images do not aim to represent reality, but to evoke its loss, its corrosion, its transformation. The alchemical processes they undergo (oxidation, burning, abrasion) become an integral part of their language.

Existing between photography, painting and sculpture, EXUVIA becomes a layered material field where memory settles like dust — a living ruin, suspended between what once was and what is no longer.
