Abstracting the Natural Landscape
This is a continuation of Visual Narrative #061, published February 2, 2025
At one point in my photographic career, I began to feel a lack of creativity when I was just replicating familiar landscapes. As a result, I began to familiarize myself with abstract art; visiting galleries online, listening to curators, and reading books.
When thinking of the word ‘abstract’ as a verb, I began to abstract the landscape by selecting small, simple, and intimate compositions from within the larger and more complex landscape.
In other words, I was seeking small realities within large realities, beauty within the beautiful.
The following images are examples; as single exposures, they are both abstract and documentary.
