Moments of Speed Photographs

Moments of Speed

In Moments of Speed, speed becomes impressively visible. At first glance, the images reveal the aesthetics and dynamics of movement and allow the intensity and energy of the moment to be felt. At the same time there is an interesting shift from visualized speed to calmness in the motif. In the movement depicted, the images radiate a serenity of their own that creates a pleasantly relaxing effect. This change in perception allows the viewer to experience a new, deeper level. Composition, details, colouring, sharpness and blurring create dramatic and at the same time an image of calm in motion.

Peace Photo Collage

Peace

The design concepts conveyed by this collage are balance and harmony. Each of the hands around the woman reinforces the presence of the others, and the design falls apart if any of the hands are missing or placed out of balance. The woman and the multiple hands around her were conceived as an integrated design. Because each source material differs in size, brightness, and color from the others, each hand was manipulated individually to create a sense of coherence. This work gives form to a design hierarchy based on equality, as its title suggests.

Jellybelly Artwork

Jellybelly

Jellybelly is a fine art photography series that portrays jellyfish. The images were taken inside a large aquarium at night, in complete darkness. Only a few artificial lights inside and outside the aquarium were used, giving the jellyfish a subtle glow. The series aims to capture the elegant movement and aesthetic of a species that is also an indicator of water quality. Each image is printed on fine art paper, mounted on aluminium and set in a black oak frame with a two centimetre shadow gap. Two limited editions are offered, sized 50 by 50 cm and 80 by 80 cm.

Hues of the Future Architectural Photography

Hues of the Future

Hues of the Future is a series of architectural photographs of an exhibition held at Ghernata Palace during the second edition of Cairo Design Week in Cairo, Egypt. The exhibition presented the 2024 color trends of GLC Paints through four pavilions created by six Egyptian designers: Brutifully Forward, Ha-beita, Reserva 77 and Casino Central. The pavilions were built from wood, gypsum board and paint. A full-frame camera and tilt-shift lenses were used to control perspective, while bracketing balanced the strong contrasts created by large openings and reflective surfaces.

Foggy Mornings Photography

Foggy Mornings

The photo series Foggy Mornings explores the seemingly unattractive and depressive qualities of a dark season dominated by omnipresent grey. Through a deliberate confrontation with fog covered, often low contrast scenery, the project develops a calm and atmospheric aesthetic. Reduced light, subtle colour nuances and clear composition transform supposedly unappealing motifs into poetic visual spaces, opening up a new, reconciliatory perception of the surroundings. Each image tells a story while leaving room for personal reflection.

Hand Still Participatory Art

Hand Still

Hand Still is a participatory art project created to support well-being. Participants combine their hands and fingers to suggest a landscape or a creature, photograph the pose, give the image a title, and share the result on social networks with a common tag. Viewing the shared works and creating new ones is intended to increase creativity. Hand Still applies four factors linked to well-being: self-actualization and growth, connection and gratitude, a positive and optimistic outlook, and independence and self-identity.
