Pool Splash
Aimée Hoving
Pool Splash (Single)
DESCRIPTION
An empty pool, a silvery creature floating at the top; is she escaping from something or re-joining her natural surroundings? There’s a feeling of lightness and freedom from gravity when you are in the water, but this picture has heaviness to its emptiness. Yet it is saturated at the same time.
I don’t particularly enjoy water so my pictures are the reflections of my childhood – the fears I had often show up in my pictures.
