Echoes of the Unseen began as a deeply personal journey to document my mother’s gradual changes due to Alzheimer’s. Since 2021, I’ve photographed her to capture not just what is disappearing, but also what remains — the moments of closeness, confusion, tenderness and distance. It became a way for me to process my own emotions and to see her fully, beyond the illness. The project grew into a photographic series and a self-published book that captures moments of presence, absence, vulnerability and connection. Alongside the photos, I made sketches during the process, which became an important part of the book; visual traces of my emotions and the changes we were going through.
