Artwork description:

CALIPSO is an artwork from my abstract project Aphàiresis.

Delicate aquatic plants emerge from a calm, reflective surface, suspended in a dreamlike field of white. "Calipso" captures a moment of stillness and abstraction in nature, where light, water, and form dissolve into minimalist poetry. A meditative study in silence and space.

"Aphàiresis" — from the Greek, meaning abstraction — is a project born from the desire to strip reality down to its essence.
Through a progressive selection of shapes and tones, and a refined use of black&white, I create images suspended in time and detached from space.
The result is a visual language that leans toward abstraction — not as an aesthetic detachment, but as a way to express the silent cry of a damaged and overlooked nature.
What may seem like a formal, almost elitist approach is, in truth, a deeply felt act of environmental awareness.
