About / Outside work

A builder, beyond
the day job.

Live music photography showed me how differently people experience the same event. Everyone leaves with their own memories and photographs; few get to see the complete picture.

That observation became Cosmos, an independent project exploring how people can connect through shared experiences and document the moments they were part of.

From photography to Cosmos

The photographs are individual perspectives on a shared experience. Cosmos grew from a question: what could those perspectives reveal together?

It explores how people can connect around the events they share and collectively document the moments they were part of. Like much of my professional work, it began with noticing a gap and building something practical to address it.
