Description
This series explores the transformation of landscape through reflection. Rather than photographing trees and sky directly, the images are created by isolating their mirrored forms on the surface of moving water.
Light, current, and subtle shifts in motion reshape the forest into fluid vertical lines, fractured color, and rhythmic distortions. The abstraction is not digitally constructed; it exists naturally in the interaction between water and light. The camera records what is already present but often overlooked.
By focusing on the reflected image alone, the familiar landscape dissolves into something less fixed and more perceptual. Structure becomes movement. Solidity becomes flow. What appears stable reveals its quiet instability.
These photographs invite viewers to slow down and reconsider what they are seeing. The forest is no longer a place, but a living surface — constantly shifting, shaped by time and motion. In this space between recognition and abstraction, the landscape becomes fluid, reflective, and alive.
