Photographed over multiple visits to Havana between 2025 and 2026, Tender Weather explores the emotional geography of domestic life during a period of deepening scarcity.

I became interested in the point where a room ends and a person begins—and found the boundary often dissolved. Inside these rooms, another kind of weather quietly took shape.
