I looked away

Lithophanes

2025

An installation featuring five self-portraits transferred onto translucent porcelain panels using the 19th-century lithophane technique. The chosen images originate from faded and oxidized ID photos, their gradual deterioration lending the work a ghostly quality. When backlit, the portraits fluctuate between clarity and dissolution.
