Piece description from the artist
Location: Snoqualmie Falls, WA – 2023
Several weeks following dramatic overflows, Snoqualmie Falls had returned to a calm elegance. As the sun set, I composed a series of long exposure photos, capturing the majestic falls in the dimming light.
The intricate details of the cliffs and rock walls beautifully complement this waterfall's smooth and milky flow. The interplay of light and shadow also helps to accentuate the encroaching darkness, adding profound depth to the scene.
Santos "Sanzei" López is a fine art photographer for whom the camera is the culmination of a lifelong visual journey. His artistic practice was ignited in childhood with a simple 35mm film camera, a gift from his mother, who became his first subject and instilled in him the belief that photography could capture profound joy and connection.
This foundation evolved through decades of work as a graphic artist and graffiti writer, disciplines that permanently shaped his eye for composition, bold geometry, and layered texture. In 2015, he made a definitive commitment to photography, channeling this multidisciplinary vision into a focused pursuit of the definitive image.
Sanzei’s work transforms the contrasting landscapes of South Florida’s coasts and the Pacific Northwest into contemplative art. He approaches beaches, cityscapes, and mountain vistas as complex graphic arrangements, seeking the precise interplay of light, shadow, and form that transcends documentation to evoke feeling and narrative. His fine art pieces are featured on leading platforms like TurningArt.
