Kinetic Landscapes
Kinetic Landscapes is a work which proposes itself as form and object of creation, bonded to a moment impossible to capture, impossible to describe and impossible to exist without the combined essence of the human body and its kinetic, of landscape as an abstract creation and of photography as means of expression and a creating force.
In the early stages of photography and cinematography, Eadweard Muybridge and Etienne-Jules Marey have explored the human and animal locomotion as registered in film/photographs. This was done with a scientific purpose, although in the moment, in some cases, the artistic possibilities were already evident.
Having such experimentations as a background for the creative possibilities, Kinetic Landscapes combines similar photographic techniques and reproduces, in an extended series of images, the metamorphic expressivity of moving bodies, describing a path of otherwise unrelated images...
