Visual experience plays a decisive role in shaping perception, emotion, and our broader understanding of the world. Within a culture increasingly defined by the aesthetics of social media and the proliferation of technologically produced images, pressing questions emerge: What does it mean to see, and what qualifies as an image? Photography, often described as a threshold medium, offers a particularly rich site for engaging with such questions. Situated between surface and depth, and between evidence and interpretation, it invites reflection on the very status of the visual. The affective responses elicited by photographs - whether through a sense of truth, presence, or authenticity - underscore the ways in which images continue to structure our encounters with reality. To engage with imagery, then, is not only to interpret what is seen, but also to confront the conditions of visibility itself and the frameworks through which knowledge is produced.
