Stone Cathedral

Mediterranean is a series about heat, water, and the kind of summer that doesn't perform for the camera. Coastline frames where the day is already underway — bathers wading, parasols leaning, cliffs holding the cove like a quiet amphitheatre. Shot on film and printed in monochrome, the work leans into grain rather than away from it. Skin, stone, salt, foam: each surface keeps its texture. The pieces share a tonal register — warm whites, deep mid-greys, a sky that hovers somewhere between sunlit and faded. No drama, no postcard saturation. Just the rhythm of strangers sharing a beach, of rocks worn smooth, of an afternoon settling into itself. These are the holidays you remember as a feeling rather than a place — Sicily, Mallorca, the Peloponnese, somewhere along that long warm seam. The series sits as a body of work because the cadence is consistent: human scale, middle distance, no faces sharp enough to read. Hung as a pair or grouped across a long wall, the prints carry the easy mood of a coastal afternoon into rooms that have nothing to do with the sea.
