Piece description from the artist
Shot from directly above, this dazzling close-up of sunlit pool water captures the endlessly shifting geometry of light on a liquid surface. The vivid turquoise hue — intensified by the pool's tile — creates a jewel-bright field of rippling, overlapping circles and arcs, each catching the light differently. Flickers of iridescent color — pale lavender, mint, and white — shimmer within the pattern, giving the image an almost psychedelic quality. The complete absence of horizon or context transforms this familiar summer subject into a pure abstraction, as visually arresting and refreshing as a plunge into the pool itself. This image brings light, color, and energy to any interior.
Hi. I love to make photographs. Whether it’s around the corner or in a remote corner of the world, there are photographs to be made everywhere. The camera is a great introduction to people I meet, and it breaks down any language barrier almost instantly. Beautiful scenes of nature can be captured, precious moments frozen in time. We all move through our space in the world so fast that we miss some of the most miraculous moments around us. The camera slows me down. It encourages observation. And, when I’m lucky, I get to be in the right place at the right time to capture a sliver of a moment through the lens. For me, photography is a never-ending search for those slivers.
But most of all, making photographs nourishes my soul. Some people write, others cook or paint or make pottery. I make photographs and I hope they bring you as much pleasure as they bring me.
