Claire Droppert Captures Fantastical Creatures In Clouds Of Sand

Sarah Press — Fri, 04 Aug 2017 13:24:59 +0000

Based in Rotterdam, Netherlands, photographer Claire Droppert consistently focuses and combines both simplicity and minimalism to achieve a serene style with an artistic approach. With common themes such as travel and nature, Claire captures unique desolated locations, creating a distinguishing silent feel. Her body of work is characterized by modern editing techniques, soft tones and smooth lines in an inspiring and appealing way. For the first installment of her Gravity series, Droppert captures thrown shovelfuls of sand midway through their aerial arcs. The idea for this subject came up while she was walking on the shores of a Dutch beach when a spray of sand kicked up by her daughter caught her attention. Droppert takes her photos only with natural light and fast shutter speeds, revealing sharp forms and bold strokes of movement. Named “Sand Creatures”, the vague shapes can be interpreted as a dragon, sea horse or rabbit, peeking into our world from a parallel dimension.

Floating By Andrew Brodhead

Sarah Press — Thu, 23 Feb 2017 10:00:17 +0000

Named ‘Floating’, the series of photographer Andrew Brodhead is impressive and creepy at the same time. Each image shows human bodies wrapped like a mummy in plastic, hovering a few feet above the ground. Located in the absolute beauty of natural landscapes, a splitting contrast between the power of basic elements and the permanent hurt of the man-made evil is demonstrated. The ghostly look of the sunlight reflecting in folds of plastic provokes a fascinating image of swathed bodies hanging in the air for some mysterious purpose. As a defender of the environment, Andrew Brodhead uses a sweeping manner of expressing to protest against the environmental pollution through the excessive use of non-recyclable plastic.
