In the quiet glow of nighttime – surrendering to the humidity fogging the camera lens – the allure of empty squares and illuminated streets forms a symbolic terrain towards an introspective odyssey, trailing from the post-Soviet Era. Amid the pristine and almost otherworldly spaces, I navigate the emotional landscape of expatriate life, capturing the anticipation of seemingly alien experiences within the urban confines of a compound.

"The Space Within" functions as my evocative portrayal seamlessly weaving between the known and the unknown where the self is yet to be fully understood. It is a poetic realization, where concepts of identity and belonging transcend physical spaces, dwelling in the act of experience and the realm of the subconscious.
