Trans-Siberian

My journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway from Beijing to Moscow in 2012 was a transformative experience, though its full impact unfolded gradually over time. I've always found a sense of calm and focus through the lens of a camera, and this journey provided an unparalleled opportunity to explore that connection. From the vibrant energy of Beijing's streets to the tranquil landscapes of Mongolia and the vast, almost mystical expanse of Russia, my camera became a constant companion. This series captures not just the physical journey, but also the unique human landscape within it. Transport, while a daily routine for many, becomes something extraordinary on a journey like this. It's a space where diverse individuals from all walks of life converge, creating a fleeting but powerful layering of human experience. This work seeks to capture those layered moments, the unspoken stories and shared spaces within the shared journey, offering a glimpse into the transient community forged within the carriages of the Trans-Siberian Railway.
