Artwork description:

REEDS ON THE LAKE is a photo included in my project “Blaue Blume”.

The “Blaue Blume” project (in English, literally 'blue flower'), drawing inspiration from the most famous landscape paintings of the Romantic period, both in style and content, aims to be my personal tribute to the artistic movement that was a precursor to Impressionism and Abstractism, and which, more than any other, has inspired and influenced my most recent photographic work.

The blue flower, the undisputed symbol of Romanticism, is a metaphor for the search for oneself, it is the journey of the wanderer, the traveler always on the run, it is the journey of the soul, it is the realization of one's dream.

A delicate interplay of movement and stillness, Reeds on the Lake blurs the boundaries between photography and impressionistic painting. Wisps of reeds emerge from the reflective water, their delicate lines weaving an ephemeral pattern that oscillates between presence and absence.

The gentle motion, captured with a painterly sensibility, transforms the natural scene into a fleeting vision—an echo of nature’s quiet rhythms.
The palette, a harmonious fusion of soft earth tones and cool aquatic hues, enhances the ethereal quality of the composition. Subtle gradations of golden beige dissolve into silvery blues and muted greens, evoking the shifting light of dawn or dusk.

Suspended between realism and abstraction, Reeds on the Lake becomes a meditation on transience, impermanence, and the poetic dialogue between land and water.
