A photographic project exploring the relationship between the individual and contemporary urban architecture through the Freudian concept of the "uncanny" (das Unheimliche)—the familiar becoming strange, the unsettling emerging from the everyday.
The project does not document architecture but interrogates it, revealing how urban spaces shape, limit, or liberate human experience. The visual dialectic between monumental architecture and human presence resolves into a contemplative opening that allows space for new meanings and not-yet-formulated desires.
The project follows a dialectical structure: the Thesis (Volumes) presents the objective purity of urban mass; the Antithesis (Relations) introduces the human element and the struggle of existence within those structures; finally, the Synthesis (Negative Space) resolves this tension through silence and void, opening a field of transcendental possibility.
