About the Project

Seen from above, the Mobility Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai reveals a striking composition of circular forms, sweeping curves and repeating patterns. Designed by Foster + Partners, the pavilion integrates solar panels into its architectural landscape, reflecting Expo's commitment to sustainability, renewable energy and forward-thinking design.

Photographed in black and white, this series explores the relationship between architecture, technology and human scale. The geometric arrangement of solar panels, curved pathways and dramatic shadows creates an almost abstract landscape, while solitary figures moving through the space reveal the monumental scale of the architecture.

Created as a personal photography project, this collection looks beyond the building's function to explore how light, geometry and human presence interact within an architectural environment shaped by innovation and sustainable design.
