Fine Art nominee

My photography delves into the captivating essence of water, deeply enamored by its reflective beauty. Termed 'Water Natures,' my thematic focus involves creatively placing objects in streams or transparent basins, capturing the transformative effect of water. Acting as a third eye through my lens, I transcend human vision.
Taken between Crans-Montana (Switzerland) and Positano (Italy), the published photos showcase flowers and subjects in water, emphasizing the significant impact of water's power and agitation. At its peak, the effect becomes almost entirely abstract, creating aesthetically pleasing compositions that blend nature and water.
Post-processing follows a minimalistic approach, with subtle adjustments to contrast, brightness, and tone, minimizing reliance on Photoshop in my workflow.

Claudio Koporossy, a Swiss-Italian born in Lausanne, initially pursued engineering studies at ETH Zurich despite an early passion for fine art. At 15, a gift of a Nikon camera sparked a lifelong love for photography, becoming the central focus of his life.
For over a decade, Koporossy has immersed himself in the theme of water, exploring its diverse facets. His international exhibitions include "Dell'Acqua" in Rome (2018), "Acqua Russa" in St. Petersburg (2019), and "Alahambra" in Trento (2022), curated by Tahar Ben Jelloun. The pandemic led him to find solace in the Swiss mountains, inspiring exhibitions like "La Magnifica Ossessione" (2020) and "Invisibilia" (2021).
Recent exhibits include "Alma" in Palermo (2022), "Acqua di Rose" in Bologna (2022), and "Ripples & Reflections" in Las Vegas (2023). Koporossy's talent lies in capturing the essence of water, making him a notable figure in contemporary photography. His work transcends boundaries, offering a profound visual exploration of this elemental force.
