Social phobia - explores the invisible boundaries created by fear.

A series of ambrotypes (wet plates) on circular glass, each measuring 25.5 cm in diameter.

The figures in the series are wrapped in fabric and entangled in ropes - gestures that become metaphors for isolation and immobility, but also for the attempt to protect oneself from the outside world. The material becomes a second skin - both a veil and a prison.

It is a reflection on the human need for shelter and the self-imposed limits that fear creates. It seeks to capture a state in which the desire to disappear is as strong as the need to be seen.

The visual language of the series draws partial inspiration from the monumental works of Christo and Jeanne-Claude from the 1980s, including L'Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped and Wrapped Reichstag - projects that similarly explored the tension between concealment and revelation, presence and absence.
