"Geometry is the archetype of the beauty of the world." - Johannes Kepler
Essay: geometry and beauty is an inevitable marriage. Geometry brings balance, perfect shapes, and the eye and the soul seek that perfection throughout our lives. Once more, these compositions can be created if you learn how to look. If the eye is not trained, one might miss these opportunities to purify the soul. In this case, I used different edges of a bridge and the stairs to frame the “wandering soul” crossing.
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.
