This series depicts a mech pilot in a dystopian world whose mech was severely hit. After the incident the pilot had to leave the protective hull and continue his mission alone in the dark alleys of the lost city.
Self-portraits combined with photographs of terrain pieces I crafted in a 28mm scale.

Biography
My work explores the intersection of imagination and reality through the lens of miniature worlds. These intricately crafted scenes are more than scaled-down models— they are immersive visual stories that invite viewers into a world uniquely shaped by photography. Each piece reflects a blend of passion and precision: sourcing and customizing miniatures in 28mm scale, hand-painting details, constructing terrain, and composing scenes that bring my creative vision to life.
Miniatures are both an escape and a mirror for me—a way to navigate and interpret the complexities of the real world.
