DESCRIPTION
Maybe due to my background in mathematics, I like abstraction: pure forms expressing the core qualities of reality. Although I have immersed myself in analog photography for many years, new possibilities of digital photography (hi-tech cameras and sensors, sophisticated softwares, etc.) provoked my curiosity and spurred my need for experiment.
Sand dunes are the most fitting material for my work. Countless variations of their harmonious curves and shapes reminded me of the cleanliness of Newton’s laws of motion. Taking a picture is just the beginning of the path. It is a search for photographic Equivalents in which simple lines form a new imagery, which evokes fresh associations and meanings, which in turn stimulate emotions freed from the original recorded object.
