Inner Landscapes, Outer Cities       


2026
Exploring the entanglement of subjective experience and urban space through drawing and photography
Inner Landscapes, Outer Cities unfolds as a dialogue between  drawing and  photography, tracing the subtle entanglement of inner landscapes and urban space. Hand-drawn images emerge as speculative and emotional terrains, while analog photographic fragments anchor the work in the materiality of the city. Through their interplay, the project reflects on how cities are not only built realities but also deeply subjective experiences. Together, they form a shifting field where perception, memory, and place are continuously negotiated.

Presented within the curatorial framework More Than Cinema at the Arquiteturas Film Festival, the work approaches the cinematic as a mode of thinking rather than a fixed medium. Illustration and photography operate as complementary narrative devices, constructing a spatial and sensory montage that explores how visible urban structures intersect with invisible practices, affects, and imaginaries. The project proposes a relational understanding of urban life as something continuously felt, remembered, and imagined.
