Phantom Pro

Phantom Pro (2022–2025) traces the destruction and reconstruction of Mosul through drone photography, photogrammetry, and mapping. Employing technologies that circulate between military and civilian spheres, the project considers the image not simply as representation, but as an operative object—produced within systems of surveillance, targeting, reconstruction, and memory. Moving across the city’s layered histories and shifting landscapes, Phantom Pro examines how technological systems of vision participate in, document, and remember contemporary conflict.
