"Whispering Forest" explores the poetic presence of trees and natural landscapes as emotional symbols. Each image is a moment suspended between dream and memory, using surreal colors, light, and layering to evoke silence, nostalgia, and transformation. Rather than portraying nature literally, I aim to capture its inner voice—the whisper of growth, decay, stillness, and change. Inspired by the aesthetics of Yūgen, the work invites the viewer to slow down and listen beyond what is visible.
