Beautiful Lives in the Corners is a series that captures the overlooked yet luminous moments of everyday life across different cities. From street vendors in Istanbul to “flowermen” in Florence, the project highlights how beauty, fragility, resilience, and warmth exist in the margins of society.
Through encounters with both people and animals, the photographs reveal the strength of ordinary lives—some struggling yet hopeful, others fragile yet enduring. By focusing on corners often unseen, this work seeks to comfort, touch, and inspire viewers, reminding them that the essence of life often shines most vividly in overlooked places.
