Visual Exercises
“In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they’re still beautiful.”
Alice Walker
I photograph the human body – the microcosm.
Its’ fragments: hair, scars, texture of skin, wrinkles.
I am interested in individual particularities; I look for distinguishing features and
irregularities. Imperfections are my favourites.
I photograph nature – the macrocosm.
Surface of water, grass, tree bark, dry leaves.
I combine the two images, looking for converging lines, textures, similarities in layout and analogies in composition between the microcosm and the macrocosm. I look for unity between the human body and nature.
