This series uses mirrored staircases to create a visual illusion of endless spatial extension. The spiral shapes take the form of a labyrinth, challenging viewers to enter a groundless structure that appears to have neither an entrance nor an exit. It's a metaphor for the routine and patterns of life and the eternal fight within us to find a path and purpose.



Through balanced compositions, I convert well-known architecture into something abstract, and I invite the viewer to go beyond reality and to lose himself in his own dream.



Beneath these seemingly harmonious structures lies a re-imagined sense of time and dimension that leaves our sense of being open to interpretation.
