Vehicles of Time
These images are not just about transportation — they are about what it means to move through time. A vintage car frozen mid-crossing over train tracks evokes a slower, heavier era, one where presence lingered. In contrast, the abandoned scooter under a harsh flash speaks of speed, disposability, and urban fatigue. Together, they chart a quiet timeline of mobility: how we used to travel with meaning, and how now we often arrive without memory. Technology changes, but the road remains — waiting for the next passenger to pass, pause, or disappear. “Vehicles of Time” is about more than motion. It’s about how movement defines an era — and how we leave traces, or don’t.

In these images, a bus terminal becomes more than a site of transit — it becomes a score of human movement. Numbers hang from the ceiling like notes. The shadows fall with precision. People wait, walk, carry, rest. The repeating columns and curved roof form a visual rhythm that mirrors the choreography of departure and arrival. Amid this architecture, a man pushes a cart — the most temporary of gestures in the most transitional of places. “Terminal Rhythms” is an ode to the spaces where nobody stays for long, yet everything passes through. A liminal place where time slows down, routine becomes poetic, and motion becomes memory.
