About The Event
"Moments in Monochrome" reflects my profound appreciation for black and white media.
While I have no aversion to color, I have always admired the understated elegance of black and white, evident in classic silver screen movies and vintage photography.
Viewing an image in monochrome offers a sense of relaxation, allowing the brain to focus on the subject and intricate details of contrast that might otherwise be overlooked.
Most of my work is presented in black and white, not out of a disregard for color, but due to a natural inclination towards monochromatic mediums.
I am captivated by the immediate impact of contrast achieved through varying shades of light and dark. This preference allows me to explore and emphasize the beauty found in simplicity and detail.
