Background

Background explores the margins of film production, bringing into focus what happens behind the scenes. Through unfinished sets, extras waiting between takes, and the technical elements of a film set, this body of work documents a liminal, fleeting space that invites us to witness filmmaking from a new perspective.

Within these transitional spaces, where time seems suspended, the invisible takes shape. The sets, with their ghostly presence and quiet stillness, speak to the fragility of cinematic illusion—to everything that disappears the moment the cameras stop rolling. Here, ephemerality is not incidental but a way of revealing what normally remains hidden. The project exposes the paradox of fiction: the more artificial the construction, the more convincing it becomes. What once remained out of focus moves to the foreground, challenging the conventional hierarchies of cinema and inviting viewers to look beyond the frame, where the unnoticed edges of the image become the true subject.
