The art of photography, when it also uses techniques that are not limited to the pure exercise of portraiture, can bring extremely surprising and highly artistic results using only its camera, such as the visual artist, filmmaker, photographer and musician Marcelo de Souza managed to practice in a rather free and abstract way.
The maranhao native of Sao Luis (MA) demonstrates with total ownership and without any sense of limitation to the traditional objects of the art of photography a level of abstraction that makes the images vivid, but without any resemblance to a common living being. with an intentional darkness and characteristic of cinematic techniques, another of Marcellus’ passions he has known since childhood.
- No wonder the dark tone motivated the multiprofessional to name the result of his clicks loaded on Obscure Paint’s abstract lens or.
- In literal translation.
- Dark Paint.
In addition to the question that the abstract is practically translated into photographs where lighting is an almost zero element, focusing only on features loaded with different colors, it is also the intention of the producer of the series to express a “union of synesthetic elements”, according to Marcelo’s words captured by the FHOX portal.
Synesthetic elements are nothing more than a set of sensations where one relates directly to the other, that is, when a sensation is felt or translated, it has a kind of connection with another that can be equivalent or even opposite.
