Artistic enlightenment of raindrops crashing to the pool’s surface.
The photograph works that contain high artistic values started off from a simple coincidence. It was a hot afternoon, but not long after, rain poured ever so heavily. After venturing through the corners of Bali on his rented motorbike, photographer Stephan Max Reinhold arrived at his hotel soaking wet. He didn’t go directly to his room, instead he dove himself straight to the swimming pool. Might as well, Max thought.
It was during his joyful time at the pool that Max witnessed nature’s “wonder”. An event mostly taken for granted. Just like Newton who discovered the law of gravity as he contemplated on the fallen apple, Max encountered enlightenment as he witnessed drops of rain crashing to the pool’s surface.
The raindrops fully caught his attention. His imagination roamed free. The raindrops seemed to form pearls or ornaments, sometimes forming shining crystal tiaras. Refused to lose the magnificent moment, Max immediately took his digital camera and captured the sparkles of water on the pool’s surface.
The results are fantastic, magical, and very fascinating photos. Max then went on to his next experiment. He tried putting various items and colors that makes biased reflections on the surface of liquid, to attain certain effects of water sparkles or drops. He experimented with different sorts of liquid, such as plain water, milk, food colorings, paint, oil, and even soap. And then, with the photoshop program, he tidied up his shoots results, without altering or manipulating the already formed imageries.
The photos are printed on canvas with large format printer using special ink. When observed, on the photo titled “Purple Haze”; shown three drops of water those form crystal pearls on the surface of a reddish purple liquid. The surface of the liquid forms the texture and circular or luminescent linings.
For another example, the photo “Ozone Waves” presents sparkles of red blood water that forms sharp pointed stacks. Four water drops the likes of drops of blood floating above it. On the bottom; greenish liquid surface that centralizes on the red blood circle becomes the base for the sharp tip.
And so it was. Max’s works showcase very imaginative imageries and landscapes. Rhythms of linings, colors, and textures combine and forming abstracts those are able to lead the appreciators’ imaginations to the world of fairytale.
Max claims that his works are combination of art, science, and technology, that also reminds all of how important water is to existence.
