The title of the exhibited collection of five images is: “Secrets of the Stone”.
When I was visiting an Italian style villa, I noticed strange and interesting patterns etched by the weather in the limestone stepping-stones leading to the sandy beach.
These patterns were barely visible to the eye, but they inspired me to photograph them. Following creative processing, different evocative images started to emerge, and I was drawn into the secret stories the stone was telling me. Some resembled animals and one talked of the Last Judgment (Rapture) when the good souls will be taken to the Heaven by guardian angels and the evil ones will be crushed, like the blue figure on the left side of the image.
I believe this is the essence of my art: to find and show through photography the secrets and the hidden meaning of the world that surrounds us.
