Surrealist Photography

PROJECT 1 - Visual Production II. Photography is a medium in which we can capture reality and fantasy is left only to more open mediums such as painting, but when creativity takes over photography, our most surreal dreams can become true. Through a series of photographs, I expressed the passage of time, inspired profoundly in the original surrealist spirit that photographers explored. Inspired by the playful style of Daniel Forero, a Colombian artist who's work is characterised by its boldness and creativeness, usually made for big companies.

The series is based in the old-style photography, which means without the use of any software intervention. Although, this photograph is an example that contains photomanipulation.

As part of surrealist photography, light painting is a very potential style in which many effects can be depicted by the movement of lighting objects.

From the previous sample photo, we were asked to represent light painting through the use of charcoal.
