After Goodbye traces the silent remains of departure—abandoned objects, broken structures, and fragments that linger once people are gone. These images do not mourn; they observe. In the absence of human presence, space itself becomes a language, recording memory in traces of what life has left behind. Absence here is not emptiness but transformation: each void, each ruin, holds the resonance of human presence, turning loss into a new kind of continuity.
