Mitchell Funk
Big Blue Waves Ocean District San Francisco - Visual White Noise

1997

About the Item

Can a photograph reduce stress and anxiety? Photographer Mitchell Funk says yes with his high-angle shot that harmoniously unifies sea and land. A pleasing relationship is created as the horizontal pattern of waves are continued in the horizontal grid of seaside houses. The image seems in constant flux as one pattern merges into another. Moreover, the image produces a meditative and spiritual effect. Breaking waves on the beach and their proxies on land create a calming visual white noise that relaxes the eye and mind. The interplay of patterns and colors makes this more than a location photograph. The work is a masterfully constructed statement of precise design, color, and composition.

  • 'Towards your Heart' Large scale Photo. Triptych Ocean, Sea, Blue, Beach Cottage
    By Sophia Milligan
    Located in Penzance, GB
    'Towards Your Heart' Limited edition archival photographic triptych. Unframed, hand signed and numbered (Edition number 3 of 25) _________________ It is not the size Nor power from which you fly But towards your heart The wild Atlantic explodes in raw abandon, given scale in this daring dance by the graceful flight of the sea bird. Sophia's poetic photographs are an exploration of the balance in all things: in the sensual interplay of light and shadow; in wild raw energy and serene stillness; in chaos and harmony; in the enduring and the effervescent. They are a contemplation of the awareness that everything in existence is temporary, they speak of the ephemeral nature of all things. Moments, feelings, experiences cherished and appreciated in their impermanence, for that is where the beauty comes from. 'I work in a balancing act of control and freedom; of discipline and guidance, whilst simultaneously relinquishing all authority and throwing the odds to the winds, to chance encounters and the unexpected'. Photographic triptych: each of three parts measuring 30 x 20 inches. Each printing is bespoke to order and can be printed on a single paper 30 x 60 inches.

Sophia's poetic photographs are an exploration of the balance in all things: in the sensual interplay of light and shadow; in wild raw energy and serene stillness; in the enduring and the effervescent. They are a contemplation of the awareness that everything in existence is temporary, they speak of the ephemeral nature of all things.
