This project began as an exploration of material perception and aesthetic transformation. Tasked with collecting and documenting 50 objects, I chose an unlikely candidate—rusted nails—to investigate how beauty can be found in overlooked, discarded, or "undesirable" materials.
Through a process of close observation, categorization, and reinterpretation, I transformed these nails into a conceptual collection of “cells”—biological, strange, almost microscopic in form. Each nail became a character, a fragment of a larger narrative that examines aging, corrosion, and natural entropy as forms of visual poetry.
