Lensing Loneliness is a visual exploration of solitude and quiet connection in the bustle of New York City—capturing strangers caught in moments of stillness, separation, or silent togetherness. In a city of millions, intimacy and isolation often exist side by side: the lone commuter waiting in the subway, the couple sharing silence on a park bench, the passerby lost in thought against the blur of the crowd. This series reflects on how urban life shapes our emotional landscapes, revealing the poetry of distance and the beauty of fleeting human presence. Each frame becomes both a portrait of the individual and a mirror for the collective experience of being alone, together.
