Otherworldly is an experimental mixed-media project that explores altered perception and the shifting space between reality and imagination, the external world and the subconscious.

The inherent unpredictability of film, often chemically altered, mirrors the instability of perception itself. Collage becomes a method of processing internal experience, an intuitive, tactile way of assembling visual elements into new forms that reflect emotional and mental landscapes.

Throughout the work, natural imagery recurs as a grounding element. Organic textures and forms offer a point of connection between the inner world and the physical world around us.

At its core, Otherworldly explores how perception changes and how photographic materials can echo the fragility and movement of inner experience.
