Waterfall
I have always been fascinated by THE WATERFALL within the Dubai Mall - a spectacular indoor art installation. Water cascades down two cylindrical structures spanning the 3 floors of the Dubai Mall, each adorned with life-size fiberglass sculptures of human divers. The art installation conveys rhythm, vitality and strength. Through this inspiration and by using Macro Photography, I created a series of photos expressing the same dynamic and energy.
Wave
Waves symbolize transformation, they are always in motion, always shifting and changing. They remind us that change is inevitable, for good or bad, and that we must learn to embrace it. This teaches us to go with the flow, adapt, and grow. My abstract interpretation of waves illustrates this flow of energy. Their effortlessness and fluidity, smoothly and gracefully, evoke positive emotions of peace and calmness. The round expresses harmony and softness, the oval dynamic and vitality as they expand into one direction.
Ommm
Nature acts as both, a catalyst and a mirror for mindfulness. Its beauty and serenity draw us into the present moment, allowing us to let go of our worries and find a sense of peace. The profound interconnection between the psyche and the natural world creates a sense of stillness within us, helping us to quiet our minds and focus on the here and now. This calming influence helps to reduce stress and anxiety. Our nervous system relaxes, our heart rate decreases, our stress hormones decline, and our immune function improves. In short, green meditation nurtures our physical well-being.
Euphoria
Euphoria is defined as a state of extreme happiness and an elevated sense of well-being. Shooting macro of washing-up liquid got me really euphoric as the explosions of colors and shapes left me in a state of intense excitement and joy.
Flow
Flow mode in psychology describes the sense of fluidity between the body and mind, where you are totally absorbed by and deeply focused on something, beyond the point of distraction. Time feels like it has slowed down and senses are hightened. It’s the feeling of being ‚in the zone‘ and operating at your peak. My abstract interpretation of the flow reflects this intense focus and loss of awareness of time and self.
