MAGNA SILENTIA

“The Great Silence”

This collection is being actively updated - what you see here will change!

This is a collection of 35mm film frames meant to show the silence of a photograph—“Magna Silenta” (Latin, meaning “the great silence”). The subjects of these photos are everyday people, going about their lives. Sonder is an important word to me in the context of this series, and I try to convey that feeling in them. Taken on black-and-white film and developed at home, the photographs focus on composition, the decisive moment, and contrast.

Silver gelatin prints are available upon request. Some select prints from this collection have been featured in galleries such as Cornell Creative’s Annual Gifted Exhibit, Cornell Creative’s Film Like Vinyl Exhibit, my Artist of the Month show at the Gunks Gaming Guild, and The SUNY Ulster 2025 Senior Student Exhibition.

Now available as a limited edition softcover photo-book!
