“FPOLIS” is a metaphor for nature at its purest – a portrait of the peace of mind that this purity provokes in those who contemplate it rather than simply looking at it. I photograph what I feel and I have tried to synthesize these feelings via the subtle repetition of simple bold forms with few details that reinforces the meditative character of my feelings. 8
The Fpolis series deals specifically with alternative manners in which we can visualize what we feel by conceptualizing what we see. It is a process of transforming something “specifc” into something “general” by removing the context, thereby rendering it timeless and universal. This in turn allows spectators of widely different horizons to complete the work bringing to it their own particular cultural baggage and experience.
