The Story
Buildings On Water 3 captures the facades of houses on Rua João Mendonça in Aveiro, Portugal. This photograph pays tribute to Claude Monet, echoing his fascination with reflections of structures built beside water. This artwork represents one of my early explorations into how water reflections mirror the visual essence of a culture. The shimmering reflection of these historic buildings delves into the unique character of Portuguese architecture, offering viewers a glimpse into the cultural identity of Aveiro. Featured in my "Water Spirits of Aveiro" exhibition, this piece illustrates my hypothesis that water reflections reveal the inherent nature of their surroundings.
About the Paintings on Water Collection
Paintings on Water transforms natural reflections into painterly compositions that resemble brushstrokes on a moving surface. These works sit between photography and painting, shaped entirely by light and water.
