light experiments
A new series using flash photography to architecture light in a new way, disrupting the greyness of the sky and giving birth to unapologetic images with a surrealist twist to them. In broad daylight, my images take on a hyper-realist twist, giving a whitish yellow look to random subjects in the street, making them stand out in all their reality against a darker, more subdued background. At night, flash takes over any ambient light around, creating a unique atmosphere. Playing with light trails at low speed, its gives my subjects surrealist looks, frozen in time, while the surrounding light trailes down around them.
The series is the result from early experimentations using a Leica M240, over the course of 3 months in winter 2024/25.
