"The human heart likes a little disorder in its geometry." - Louis de Bernieres
Essay: sometimes if what we see looks too perfect, we feel uneasy since it seems unrealistic. We are not used to pure perfection because it doesn't exist and that is why our eyes always seek some “disorder”. The perspective in this photo gives that level of imperfectness because otherwise the composition would look too artificial. This photo was also shot during the covid lockdown from a window at home.
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.
