Le geometrie essenziali del New Mexico - Natalie Christensen - Artwort. Aerial Industry. La fotografia di Tom Blachford ha un modo particolare di collegare la familiarità con il surreale, di trasformare strutture artificiali funzionali in un disegno silenzioso.
Aerial Industry è una serie di fotografie aeree del settore industriale di Melbourne, catturate da un elicottero che ha sorvolato la città. La fascinazione di Blachford per le texture e le forme geometriche, fattori che contribuiscono allo stile grafico e alla geometria compositiva delle sue opere, ha guidato la sua ricerca artistica nel campo dell’architettura e degli interni. Electrifying Photograms Made From Desert Minerals, Flora, and Fauna. Great Plains Rat Snake, Tucson, AZ Grey Fox Petrified Wood, Quartzsite, AZ Melbourne-based photographer Rebecca Najdowski has loved the the desert since her first memories of a childhood spent under the New Mexico sun.
She knows intimately the minerals that make up the desert floor, the bugs and furry critters that skitter across it, and the expansive blue sky that envelops all who trod the dry terrain. For Desert Pictures, she captures the landscape of the American West unlike any of her ancestors would have, replacing panoramic vistas with electric, neon photograms made by placing found objects and organisms directly onto photo-sensitive paper. When asked what compels her to return the desert, Najdowski says simply that she feels a “charge” when she enters its midst. Once she gathered articles of desert minerals, flora, and fauna, Najdowski headed to the color darkroom, where she set them either on on photographic paper or within the enlarger itself. Incredible Camouflaged Self Portraits by Cecilia Paredes. Hordes of Plastic Bags Photographed to Resemble Flocks of Birds. For Murmurations: Ephemeral Plastic Sculptures, Paris-based photographer Alain Delorme constructs foreboding hordes of winged creatures that upon closer inspection reveal themselves to be composed entirely of fluttering plastic bags.
Motivated by his own frequent encounters with pesky, discarded bags along the street, Delorme began to consider the consequences of improper disposal of these environmentally hazardous objects. After learning of the Great Pacific garbage patch, an underwater mass of waste whose undetermined size is estimated to be as large as an entire continent, he imagined the impact of such an accumulation had it emerged in clear view of the general public, and he got to work on building these throngs of inorganic beasts. After collecting transparent bags of varying hues, he shot each specimen more than one hundred times before compositing the various vantage points into a single frame composed of as many as 100,000 bags.

Hull 53 Hull 5 Washington, DC-based photographer Frank Hallam Day has an uncanny ability to meld old world cultures with the encroaching modern world.

Having once worked for the State Department, Day has traveled extensively as part of his job. His project Hulls captures color and texture in abstract photos of ships harbored in Nigeria and Cameroon. Hull 33 What did you have in mind as you put this series together?

E’ difficile spiegare perché, ma c’è qualcosa di così avvincente e passionale nelle forme perfette delle scale a chiocciola che è difficile evitare di apprezzarle.
È interessante notare come le scale a chiocciola siano state introdotte relativamente tardi nell’architettura a causa della loro complessa struttura elicoidale. Anche se i primi esempi risalgono al 5° secolo avanti Cristo, si è dovuto attendere sino alla costruzione della Colonna Traiana, eretta a Roma nel 113 dopo Cristo, perché questa forma di architettura guadagnasse uno spazio di tutto rispetto nell’architettura romana. A causa della forma elegante arrotondata, le scale a chiocciola donano un effetto più romantico rispetto a quello che le normali scale danno alla costruzione deputata alla scalata di un edificio.
Il lato fotogenico delle scale a chiocciola è stato ampiamente sfruttato da fotografi, filmaker e vari cineasti. Musei Vaticani Museum. Pattern di gente cinese. Pattern di pattern.
