Proximity and afterimage
The series follows brief encounters in which Istanbul becomes less backdrop than counterpart: gaze, gesture, work, proximity, and a quiet afterimage.
The edit stays close to people without removing the city from the frame. Faces, hands, and small gestures carry the rhythm.
The chapter opens with an image that holds gaze and environment together. After that, the sequence can become more direct, warmer, more physical.
The ending remains restrained. No grand gesture, more the feeling of an encounter that was briefly present and keeps resonating.
