The work Watching Room examines the notion of the penetrating gaze as an act of control, memory, and enforced observation. Within an abandoned structure, inscribed with layers of graffiti and marks, I embedded enlarged eyes—non-human yet carrying a human-like presence of intrusion. These are not merely eyes but mechanisms of viewing, surveillance, perhaps even judgment.

The ruined spaces become for me a surface for emotional and visual mapping. The eye slips through cracks, broken walls, and openings, becoming part of the architecture itself—as though the space were watching back.

The photograph is digitally manipulated yet grounded in documentation, generating a tension between the real and the constructed, between personal memory and a collective narrative of home, destruction, and the body under watch. Through this work I ask: who watches, and who is watched? And what occurs when the house no longer belongs to its inhabitants, but to unrelenting eyes.
