Between 2007 and 2017 I photographed passengers in buses and trams, drawn to a particular state that appears when people are transported — a suspension between departure and arrival, when the body continues its route while attention wanders elsewhere.Public transport once held a quiet, shared reverie. People watched the city slide past, followed reflections in the glass, rested, or remained folded into their own thoughts. Sometimes the anonymity offered by the large city allowed couples small gestures of closeness — a shoulder leaned upon, a whispered word, a kiss — brief tenderness sheltered inside the moving crowd.

During that decade I felt this interval slowly changing, as scrolling began to occupy the same empty time.

What began as observation gradually became a record of disappearance.

The individuals are not portrayed as characters but as presences temporarily detached from their surroundings — sometimes attentive, sometimes withdrawn, sometimes absorbed in each other.
