About the Item
Limited Edition Black and White Lewis Photograph Water, Ocean - 2015. This is Untitled #12 from the Kinetic Solitude series. Kinetic Solitude has been exhibited in the Dow museum as part of their "Water" exhibition.
My photographic series “Kinetic Solitude” seeks to create visual imagery that captures the mystery and unforgiving kinetic force of the oceans as darkness settles and signs of people are absent from the field of vision.
The exhilarating, kinetic beauty of the ocean is best experienced in storm-whipped waves in near darkness; at the height of its relentlessness. There is a visual rhythm seen through the lens that becomes somewhat predictable with time and practice; the foam will swirl right, the wave will break soon, white caps will appear by the upper corners of the frame.
When I’m photographing, I am often thigh-deep in cold water with the wind howling. I teeter at the edge of disaster, moving with the waves to get the right amount of visual motion, avoiding getting knocked over in the surf and at the same time protecting equipment. I wait for “contact moments” between and from waves to capture moments of uncertainty. The surface water, the undercurrents, the tides and I are all in motion, and there is only one ideal moment to hit the shutter and capture the right combination of wave and weather elements that creates my desired image.
I chose to print this black and white series emphasizing a maximum range of subtle dark and toned areas in contrast with luminous highlights to depict the character and energy of the ocean. The printing is intended to heighten the viewer’s experience and visualize my appreciation for the power, and the solitude of being present with nature.
About:
Lewis’ artistic practice often explores science, engineering, technology, and innovation. His intention is to create work that communicates the importance of the search for truth based on science and how the physical world looks and works. The images engage physics, mechanics and creative thinking that often evokes an innovation process. Many photographs are abstract however, he also has a strong affinity for the environment, reflected in his photographs that often include elements of water and sky.
Lewis started photographing when he was a teenager and continued through film school.
