A Letter To My Parents

ADVERTISEMENT

I do travel photography. I call it travel photography because I take my shots while traveling. I’m inspired to create my works by paintings and drawings. Sometimes I like to capture sublime horizont lines and transform them into Instagram squares.

Other times, I like to capture landscapes and make them look like the great storytelling paintings.

These photos are black and white. I was hiking in the Swiss Alps, and since it was full daylight, I had to make them visually appealing. No one wants to see landscapes made at plain daylight. Nevertheless, they capture a story. My story, and I took these pictures to send them to my parents. To make them feel good about me.

At the time I was fascinated about Japanese zen art. In the photo with the one figure and a big foggy mountain, I tried to reproduce what I saw in the Haboku Sansui painting. An abstract black and white image, that if is watched long enough, more and more details come across.
