Naples, at the Threshold

A black-and-white series made in Naples in June 2023. The photographs follow figures suspended between inside and outside: workshops, alleys, stations, rain, ferries and urban passages. Rather than leaning on folklore, the sequence looks for a quieter tension: people paused, turned away or seen in profile, held for a moment at a threshold.
