This beautiful photograph is part of the "Water Geomaids" series which consists of 13 different images.
It comes signed and numbered and is part of an edition of 12.
We also offer other available sizes for these images (please contract us for more information).
It will be shipped in a tube from Australia although we also offer some framing options in the US.
The unseen need not be lost.
Looking past the obvious and focusing on the lesser-known perspective introduces a parallel universe. Through using domestic objects and the human form in our environment, I work to orchestrate unique visions that are meticulously balanced in the ultimate pursuit of equilibrium. My goal is to inspire all those who see my work to begin looking at the world around them in a new way, evolving their view to uncover the undiscovered beauty in everyday things.

Backgammon by the Pool, Estate Edition
By Slim Aarons
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Women playing backgammon while sunbathing at the Habitation Leclerc pool, January 1975
Over the course of a career lasting half a century, Slim Aarons (1916-2006) portrayed high society, aristocracy, authors, artists, business icons, the celebrated and their milieu. In doing so, he captured a golden age of wealth, privilege, beauty and leisure, a history of glamour that occurred alongside—but quite separate from—the cultural and political backdrop of the second half of the Twentieth Century.
Increasingly known for his influence, Aarons's casually glamorous jetset aesthetic can be seen today in fashion, art, and celebrity photography. Recent articles credit his work with inspiring the casually flawless style of top Instagram influencers, full of sunshine and escapism.
Reference: "Dive in: how Slim Aarons art directed the poolside summer. French brand Maje are the latest label to take inspiration from Slim Aarons’ pictures of the jetset on holiday."

Coming Back - underwater photograph - archival pigment print 23x17"
By Alex Sher
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
"Coming Back" captures a transformative moment in contemporary underwater fine art photography, where classical composition meets avant-garde expression. A figure in crimson emerges through a veil of ascending bubbles, creating a dynamic interplay between motion and stillness. The deep cerulean backdrop contrasts dramatically with the red fabric, while suspended air bubbles catch light like countless stars, evoking a celestial aesthetic. This fine art photograph explores themes of emergence and rebirth, characteristic of modern submersible portraiture. The technical mastery of underwater lighting and movement choreography elevates this piece to a meditation on human resilience and ascension.

ABOUT:
In this dream-based series, water becomes a metaphor for sky. The invitational image, Bourrée, depicts a woman suspended in soft hues of blue, floating upward as if ascending into the heavens. In Arabesque, the model seems to tumble gracefully through clouds, arms outstretched. Olson’s color images are surreal and mysterious. In most of the images there are refractions of light and bits of clouds that blend together, leaving us feeling as if we are looking at watercolor paintings.
Olson describes Rapture as, “a biography of my dreams.” This series represents, for her, the world that lies just beyond consciousness—where “time shifts, gravity loosens and we slip into another realm.” Through the images she conveys the dreams she’s had since childhood of floating weightless in the sky. In reality, Olson photographed them from above in swimming pools in Seattle, Washington combining images with clouds photographed mostly in North Dakota, where she grew up and visits each summer. The effect is ethereal. Her models could be construed as angels.
Olson’s entrancement with the medium spans over 30 years, starting in 1980 when she did a series of swimmer images while in graduate school at the University of Oregon.
In the Rapture series, despite each image’s balanced composition, Olson claims the process of photographing women...
