Using a tight close-up as his point of view, Phelps submerges your senses into the sparkling surf. Phelps calls his latest photographic series a ”real departure” from his more staged 8” x 10” large format work, yet the intimate study of waves is clearly stamped with his distinct aesthetic. Drawing inspiration from the environment, he says, “I like dangerous beauty. The water,” he continues, “has a living, animal quality, and the figure seems more creature than human.”
