The photo series titled “London Glass Veil” captures my personal journey of exploring London after moving to England. Feeling like an outsider in a foreign country and city, I embraced this perspective to view the place through a fresh lens. Working in the genre of street photography, I concentrated on the aesthetic appeal of London, particularly its central areas, which, to me, appear to be covered by a “glass veil”
Through this veil, the city’s life reveals itself—happy people spending time together, going about their daily routines, immersed in their observations, dreams, and desires, as they become the protagonists of their own film.
As an observer of objective reality, I strive to transform the everyday into poetry, capturing the unique spirit of the time in my images.
Through this project, I aim to show London not just as a place, but as a living organism that breathes, evolves, and unveils its unique aesthetic to the attentive observer.
