Stasis began as a typical Still Life project. As I began editing the later images, it transformed into something more mysterious, alien. It was almost as if I was documenting another planet or a world yet discovered.

Perhaps a moon, in a way that I have never seen it
before. A wonder in the palm of my hand.
