"It is through geometry that one purifies the eye of the soul." - Plato
Essay: the purity and perfectness of geometric forms, such as circles, triangles and squares, bring certain balance and beauty to compositions. In this case, the semi-circle acts as both a compositional element and a leading line to the subject.
This collection is an ode to my city Bilbao and an exploration of geometry within photography. Geometry has been linked to art from the beginning of history, whether it was in painting, sculpture, or music to name some examples. Kandinsky is one of the best examples that put all this together, creating paintings that were a visualization of music, colors, and geometric forms.
The name of the collection “Souls of Bilbao” makes reference to two aspects. First is to the individuals, wandering souls of the city, that cannot be recognized and become just another element of the composition. Second, and in the words of Plato, “through geometry one purifies the eye of the soul”. Geometry brings order, rhythm, music, and beauty to the eyes, and through that, our soul is elevated above the banalities of this world.
