Relinquished is a profoundly striking series that displays the deep vulnerability of the human form set against the backdrop of abandoned, forgotten places. Once lively buildings, now deserted, stand as silent reminders of time's relentless passage. The images in this series provide a moving examination of solitude, portraying individuals in stark isolation, their presence intensified by the vast emptiness around them. The deterioration of the environment mirrors our own mortality, with crumbling walls and flaking paint symbolizing our inevitable decline. The series takes a minimalist approach, removing distractions to concentrate on the human figure, simplified by the gentle, diffused light that filters through shattered windows, emphasizing their fragility. The contrast between soft skin and a harsh environment emphasizes the emotional depth of the struggle for survival. The tactile interaction of textures—skin against brick, wood, and stone—further accentuates the bond between humanity and the decay that surrounds it.
