Glass is ubiquitous in cities these days. They can be found on e-bikes, electric cars, advertising windows, overpasses etc. In my search for new ways to photograph, I often use the glass of these objects as a filter, resulting in this series of images that express the connection between people and cities, people and their environment, and how we coexist. Glass distorts what is seen, yet what is seen remains, appearing and disappearing.
