SKY CITY 2026 NEW YEARS

Documentary photography is a genre that aims to chronicle events or environments that are both significant and relevant to history and everyday life. Unlike other forms of photography, its primary purpose is not just to create aesthetically pleasing images but also to convey a deeper understanding of who we are.
STATEMENT
It’s the moment when the impossible stops being a punchline and becomes a way of seeing. A reminder that the world is full of things we overlook because we’ve already decided what they are.
This project is about challenging that certainty.
The Flying Pig is a lens — sometimes literal, sometimes metaphorical — for noticing the strange, the ordinary, and the in‑between. It’s where documentary instinct meets imagination. A place where objects, people, and moments are allowed to be more than their surface suggests.
Every image in this series asks the same quiet question: What happens when you stop assuming and start observing?
The pig doesn’t fly because it has wings. It flies because you’re willing to look again.
