Waiting Room (2023 - 2025)

These images are not conclusions, just moments suspended.

Waiting Room began as a way to make sense of a place I didn’t choose, during a time I didn’t fully understand. I arrived in Limehouse during a period of personal transition and found a neighbourhood in one too, caught between timelines, intentions, and identities. A place defined less by destination than by pause.

From a position partly within and mostly observing, I became attentive to the tensions shaping the area. New developments rise with confidence, while shared spaces feel provisional or neglected. Lives overlap but rarely intersect. Streets speak many languages, but not to each other. What is built for connection rarely connects.

These photographs are not an urban study, but a personal essay in images, an attempt to capture what it feels like to linger at the threshold of change. They trace the mood of a place in waiting, and what slips from view when places are remade faster than the lives that inhabit them.
