TRAPPED OBJECTS

We Humans try to protect all those objects that are important in our lives of inclement weather, the force of nature, an external dangers.
These objects stand in time by a protective layer, a second artificial fragile skin.
We have a permanent internal fear of losing everything we have. We are tied to objects, and we try for instance to trap material things eternally.

PROYECTS 2013: FALLEN

We photographers are curious, nosy, restless. We are constantly looking for lights, shapes and beauty. 

Clearly photographers with practice observe the world with different eyes. We look up to the left, downwards, we bend, we got on top of things, we lay on the floor, we try hard to capture something that seduces us visually. 

The final decission of taking one picture or another has to do with our way of life, our culture, our psychology. 

I have to admit that personally I feel atraction for trees, plants and nature. 

In this case, walking through a park in the autumn of 2013, I saw a perfect theme to develop: Fallen leaves on the ground. 

This is the result of my work in those autumn days.
