Howard Lewis
Limited Edition Color Photograph Ocean - "Daybreak Kinetic Solitude" 20 x 24

2019

About the Item

Limited Edition Color Photograph - 2019. This is Daybreak Kinetic Solitude 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.

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.

    Limited edition Color photograph. This image is "Fire Cloud". I’ve long been fascinated by weather and most recently climate change science. My deepening knowledge of climate change has strongly influenced the final outcome of images of sky and clouds. The photographs explore the unique emotional ballet of the times we live in; conflicting, dramatic, beautiful, stark, passionate, and rapid change – it’s all there. I wait, looking up, searching for interesting shapes of clouds to appear, the relationships between the cloud...
