Transit Ghosts
In a city that never pauses, this series captures the in-between — the fleeting ghosts of movement, the blur of routine, and the anonymity of the urban crowd. Shot in black and white, these images strip away noise and color to reveal rhythm, tension, and silence. Here, people aren’t portraits — they’re passengers. They appear only to vanish again into tunnels, terminals, and shadows. Public transport becomes a stage where no one performs, and everyone waits. Spaces once meant for motion feel heavy with stillness. “Transit Ghosts” is not about destination, but about drift. It’s a visual meditation on movement without direction, on being present without being seen.

This series is a study in direction, repetition, and stillness. Through parallel lines and vanishing points, these spaces unfold as silent corridors of thought — neither fully public nor entirely personal. Each photograph captures a moment between movement and pause, between origin and unknown destination. Whether a tunnel, a ferry corridor, or a bicycle lane beneath a canopy of trees, these images speak a language of balance and design. But underneath their symmetry lies something more tender: solitude, anticipation, and the invisible presence of those who have passed through. “Linear Silence” invites viewers not to arrive, but to remain — right there, in the middle of the line.
