I came across two photographers who’s work immediately resonated with me. The first is Lucas Bori who works and lives in Brazil. His project “Leviathan” is a collection of photographs of the ocean but what struck me in particular is the the way Bori captured the texture of the water, the feeling it evokes in me. The water is moving yet the light and the composition of the frames bring calm and peace to the viewer. Bori stated he took the photos to “serve in different frames to whoever may look for it” (https://www.lensculture.com/explore?category_id=14&modal=project-184949-leviathan).
The second artist I want to mention is Anuar Patjane Floriuk. His work “Underwater Realm” beautifully captures the vast beauty of the underwater world, the ocean as a home to life, the playground and stage of so many species. What I find exceptionally inspiring is the way the photos showcase the relationship between man and the ocean, man and nature. A relationship I’m very fascinated about.
