Out of the blue

«Out of the Blue» captures the simple yet profound action of a person emerging from the water, specifically a tranquil river. The true focus of this series, however, is not the subject itself, but the fleeting nature of the moment and the atmospheric qualities conveyed through the images. This approach, rooted in impressionism, emphasizes beauty, light, tonality, and composition over mere documentation of reality. At first glance, the water seems to obscure the scene, revealing little. But as you look closer to the images, subtle details begin to emerge—water plants, ripples, and legs gradually come into focus. The colors appear to dance across the chaotic canvas, but with careful observation and from a distance, that chaos transforms into harmony. Ultimately, these images tell a story of ephemeral motion, a brief action that will soon be lost in time, leaving only a memory of its existence. Shot in August 2024, Spain.
