Abstract: Honorable Mention 2021 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Trying to describe abstract art is very difficult and I think this task belongs to those who look at the image. Let the audience enjoy themselves.
I was at my bedroom´s balcony when I noticed some water dripping from the awning. This immediatly lead me to take a series of images. This one remind me of ecoes on an empty space.
AUTHOR
I started to have contact with photography in the 70s, when I took a course at the School of Visual Arts of Parque Lage.
At that time, I used films and developed and enlarged my own photos. I even had a Black and White laboratory in my home. It was still an experiment.
Later, life ended up dragging me to the area of Information Technology and photography ended up becoming a hobby. I photographed the family and travels only. But always photographing.
In 2019, I decided to return to photography with greater involvement and commitment. I returned to the photos in black and white and started sharing my work and participating in contests and exhibitions.
I rediscovered the B&W, the light and the shadows that bring greater graphics to my work and because of that I ended up finding myself with the possibility of the abstract, which currently gives me a lot of pleasure.
With this look more focused on graphics, I ended up meeting color, which brought new elements to my work and which I have risked more and more.
The possibility of graphics using lights, shadows and sometimes colors, at this moment, is what interests me most and attracts me.
