This series of Indian ink paintings on undated photographs that appear to document an expedition through enigmatic and contrasting landscapes—such as rocky deserts and dense forests. The source material itself is ambiguous, offering no clear narrative or context, which opens space for interpretation and projection. The paintings emerge from this ambiguity, not as faithful reproductions, but as reimaginings—acts of translation that blur the lines between observation and invention, between documentation and fiction. At the heart of the series lies a central question: What is an expedition? The works position themselves within the range of possible answers—suggesting that an expedition is not only a physical journey into uncharted territory, but also a psychological or emotional passage into the unknown. The urge to enter what has not yet been explored—whether a place, a memory, or a sensation—becomes an inexhaustible source of imagined narratives. These paintings function as speculative memories, shaped as much by absence and longing as by the traces left behind in the original photographs.
