We live in times when sorrow has become a part of everyday life. Wars, crises, shattered dreams—it seems that reality is filled with an invisible backdrop of pain that follows us everywhere. Some face it directly, while others feel the shadow of someone else’s pain. Against this backdrop, I reflect on my own grief, trying to comprehend it as part of the shared human experience.

The experience of loss often leads to isolation. I immerse myself in my sorrow, distancing from society. The process of grieving begins.

It is essential to have witnesses to grief, to share it with someone. I share my grief with the camera. Photography helps capture the inexpressible, making it visible and shareable. It transforms my personal experience into an act of interaction with the world.

Many describe grief as an emptiness left after losing something important. In my project, I explore this emptiness not as an absence but as a space that challenges yet also opens opportunities for inner work and acceptance. Through this process, one can find new meanings and cope with loss. “The Loud Voice of Emptiness” is an attempt to comprehend grief as an inevitable part of the human experience and to hear what hides within its silence.
