Photo Abstract Expressionism Symphony of Color

 

 

Abstract Expressionism is a form of art in which the artist expresses himself purely through the use of form and color. It is a form of non-representational, or non-objective art, which means that there are no concrete objects represented. – Art Cyclopedia

One of the challenges to photography is to compose images daily subjects to elevate one’s emotional reaction to the world around him. Unlike the classic abstract expressionism, the images here do not distort reality through exaggeration or use vigorous and strong color to express the artist ideas and emotion.

Rather, the images emphasize simplicity, concise and telling, using balance colors, lines and forms, depart from depicting the world accurately with a hint of abstraction which is not meant to impose but to sooth.
