"Buffering Reality" explores how digital photography influences the way we see and create images. Through layered compositions, this series deconstructs and reconstructs the act of capturing a moment, revealing how digital tools mediate and abstract reality in the modern age. It reflects the iterative nature of the photographic process—observation, capture, review, and manipulation—while emphasizing shadows, overlaps, and distortions as metaphors for the gaps and subjective choices inherent in image-making.
The work challenges the notion of photography as a transparent window to reality. Instead, it invites viewers to see it as a subjective, multi-layered process shaped by memory, technology, and artistic interpretation. By embracing the abstraction and fragmentation inherent in digital photography, Buffering Reality redefines photography as more than a means of documentation—it becomes a powerful medium for reinterpreting and reimagining the world around us.
