Hues of the Future Architectural Photography

Hues of the Future

Hues of the Future is a series of architectural photographs of an exhibition held at Ghernata Palace during the second edition of Cairo Design Week in Cairo, Egypt. The exhibition presented the 2024 color trends of GLC Paints through four pavilions created by six Egyptian designers: Brutifully Forward, Ha-beita, Reserva 77 and Casino Central. The pavilions were built from wood, gypsum board and paint. A full-frame camera and tilt-shift lenses were used to control perspective, while bracketing balanced the strong contrasts created by large openings and reflective surfaces.

IKARUS Photography Artwork

IKARUS

Ikarus is a photography series showing preserved bird specimens from extinct or highly endangered species. Each bird is portrayed in the manner of a Rembrandt painting, and the background of every portrait is a macro photograph of the feathers of that bird. The specimens were photographed in the ornithology collection of the Senckenberg Institute in Dresden, Germany. The title refers to the legend of Icarus, who flew too high and fell into the sea. Ikarus is the third part of a series collection called Neglect. The works are produced on ChromaLuxe material in limited editions.

Foggy Mornings Photography

Foggy Mornings

The photo series Foggy Mornings explores the seemingly unattractive and depressive qualities of a dark season dominated by omnipresent grey. Through a deliberate confrontation with fog covered, often low contrast scenery, the project develops a calm and atmospheric aesthetic. Reduced light, subtle colour nuances and clear composition transform supposedly unappealing motifs into poetic visual spaces, opening up a new, reconciliatory perception of the surroundings. Each image tells a story while leaving room for personal reflection.

Peace Photo Collage

Peace

The design concepts conveyed by this collage are balance and harmony. Each of the hands around the woman reinforces the presence of the others, and the design falls apart if any of the hands are missing or placed out of balance. The woman and the multiple hands around her were conceived as an integrated design. Because each source material differs in size, brightness, and color from the others, each hand was manipulated individually to create a sense of coherence. This work gives form to a design hierarchy based on equality, as its title suggests.

Waves Entropy Digital Art

Waves Entropy

Who has never given a moment listening to the waves of the sea? Waves is a work that tries to give sense to the story of himself and his inner life. In its elaboration the artist has experimented with different techniques. Starting from the picture of an ocean wave and by doing a physical formalized a visual entropy equation, simplifying and subtracting elements has got a sort of X-ray. Thanks to this close-up perspective, marta moretto tells of a world populated by a particular kind of bestiary, that probably every one of you have already met in his dreams. They identified someone?

FOG Architecture Photography

FOG

This series captures vast architectural pieces in surreal, foggy landscapes, blurring the line between reality and dreams. The landscape images were captured in California, USA, using an iPhone 14, while the architectural elements were photographed across various locations across Europe. Each architectural piece was shot independently from the landscapes. Achieving the correct perspective in both sets of images was necessary and a significant challenge to ensure seamless compositions.
