Dislocated explores urban anxiety and the broader existential concerns and feelings that undermine contemporary life. The project combines atmospheric, environmental portraits with abstract or bracing urban images, which comment on the uncertainty of our times and the opaqueness of truth in portraiture. Dislocated was mostly captured outdoors, often at night in the San Francisco Bay Area and London, between September 2024 and June 2025.
