Here is a series of color photographs developed from the idea that perception is always a process of translation. What we see is never the world itself, but a mediated version shaped by distance, framing, memory, and interpretation. Each act of looking produces a shift, and something is inevitably lost in the process.
The photographs depict interior and exterior spaces, fragments of bodies, objects, and traces of presence. Rather than describing events or constructing a narrative, the images register moments of encounter, where meaning remains unstable. What appears in the frame is already altered by the act of seeing, and further transformed when translated into an image.
Photography, in this context, functions as another layer of translation. The place, object, or gesture photographed no longer exists as it once did. Even if encountered again in reality, it cannot be the same. The image becomes a residue of presence rather than its confirmation.
By presenting images that resist fixed interpretation, the series invites viewers to translate what they see according to their own experiences. Here does not claim immediacy or truth, but points to the gap between presence and representation, where meaning continuously shifts. All images were photographed in Iran, capturing both interior and exterior spaces in natural light.
