Lethbridge Gallery

Every day, we encounter countless brief moments of connection with others—simple gestures, passing glances, or shared smiles—that often go unnoticed or unappreciated. In my work, I aim to capture and celebrate these ephemeral encounters, elevating them to a place of prominence and emphasising their significance in shaping our human experience.

I encourage viewers to pause, reflect, and reevaluate the importance of incidental social interactions in our lives. In our fast-paced, digitally-driven world, these moments of connection are often overshadowed or dismissed. By highlighting their significance, I seek to renew our appreciation for the small yet powerful ways in which we impact one another. In a world that can often feel disconnected and isolated, I hope to reignite a sense of empathy, encouraging individuals to seek out and celebrate these fleeting connections that bring us closer together.
