Open Theme nominee

Luke & The Pool is an under the water photographic essay. The juxtaposed images aim to tempt the viewer to recall different sensations and emotions: such as the isolating intimate feeling of the space generated under water; or the different sensorial experiences that are created by the synthesis of temperature, light, textures, movement, sound, exteriors, gravity, etc. The series includes both faceless portraits and abstract photography. David Hockney pool paintings and Edward Ruscha's nine pools are a key influence for this series.

London based photographer, originally from Madrid. Currently studying a MA in Photography at Middlesex University London. Key interests include: photo-collages & photo-manipulation , architecture & urban spaces.
