Every space, owns a presence, now or once in the past. My work revolves around the process of self-negotiation between the individual and historical spaces, in-between spaces and non-spaces within the confines of a chosen site. Using these exploratory processes as a platform to think about the necessities of constant changes to spaces, and how these changes will in turn affect people and alter the fabrics of society, I hope to give a voice to these silenced sites and encourage a closer look at people and their exchanges with these sites. Often, the history of presence in space seems to go unnoticed in the constantly changing system of modern times, especially in the context of rapid modernisation. By exploring the constant tension between the new and the old, and between construction and conservation, I hope my work becomes more than a mere mirror of society, engaging a wider community in a dialogue about today urbanized living.
