Artwork description:

This series of digital photography represents a striking fusion of past and present, created from scanned black and white 35mm film negatives, then digitally manipulated to evoke the raw, visceral essence of abstract expressionism. Each image captures the untamed beauty of natural objects - forests, branches, trees, plants etc. through a lens of high contrast and intense grain. The visual language of grunge and gestural energy emerges powerfully, with every composition embodying an atmosphere of deep, expressive tension.

Printed as limited edition giclée prints on 300g white matte paper, each piece carries a tactile quality, inviting the viewer to explore the intricate textures and layers within. The deliberate manipulation of light, shadow, and form transforms ordinary natural scenes into timeless, abstract representations that blur the lines between reality and artistic interpretation. The grain of the film, combined with the digital techniques, creates a textured, moody, and energetic atmosphere, where the organic and the abstract intertwine.

These images are not just representations; they are visceral explorations of nature's raw essence, captured in a moment of intense transformation and artistic gestural expression.
Please note that colors and image contrast may vary slightly due to monitor differences.
