A long-term documentary project created during my final journey across Iran before migration. Rather than focusing on destinations, this series explores the quiet, overlooked spaces in between: empty roads, solitary trees, power poles, and forgotten structures. Throughout this project, I revisited the memories of my childhood road trips—pausing this time to photograph the moments I used to pass by without notice. Each frame is a visual reflection of restlessness, nostalgia, and a silent farewell to a landscape I once called home.
I am Sepand, a photographer and filmmaker, born in Iran and currently based in the United Arab Emirates. My passion for photography began in my teenage years and gradually turned into something essential in my life. Photography became a language for me to tell stories; sometimes it is the photographs themselves that start telling the story. Driven by this interest in visual storytelling, I have completed several photographic books and series in recent years. Beyond capturing moments, I continually seek out hidden narratives, whether in photography or film.
