The
book uses real photographs from a former relationship as material to construct a fictional love story, explores how different photographic technologies—analog, digital, surveillance, generative—shape our ways of seeing, remembering, and relating. Under the gaze of photography, the work reflects on how the evolution of photographic media mirrors the changing expressions of intimacy.
By aligning the technical history of photography with the emotional timeline of a relationship, the work highlights how each medium—whether darkroom prints or digital files—affects the texture of romantic relationships. Photography does not simply document love; it mediates, stages, and sometimes fragments it.
In combining fictional narrative, historical image references, and personal visual archives, this project blurs the boundary between memory and construction. It reflects a desire to materialize fleeting emotional experiences, while also questioning whether photography preserves or distorts what we feel.
