Technique:
"Beach Persona” is photography print crafted through a double exposure composite technique. The primary layer is a visually rich scene featuring a nude woman reclining on a beach, backed by mountains and the ocean. Superimposed upon this, a palm tree branch not only forms a mask over the woman’s face but also mimics the effect of sunlight radiating across the scene.
Symbolism and Setting:
The palm tree branch as a mask introduces complex themes of identity hidden or shaped by nature, while its depiction as rays of sun adds a layer of warmth and energy, symbolizing illumination and enlightenment. The nudity suggests vulnerability and authenticity, placed against the enduring and majestic backdrop of mountains and the vast, dynamic ocean. This setting contrasts natural durability with the transient moments of light and shadow.
Cultural and Artistic Influences:
This piece echoes elements of surrealism where ordinary components are transformed into extraordinary metaphors. The dual function of the palm branch—as both a mask and a source of light—enhances the surreal quality of the image, playing with perceptions of reality and the interplay between the visible and the invisible.
Personal and Environmental Themes:
By intertwining the human form with these natural elements, the artist reflects on how our identities are both veiled and highlighted by our environments. The double exposure technique deepens this narrative, using the palm branch to explore themes of exposure and concealment, light and shadow, and how these forces shape our perception of self and surroundings.
The artwork was shot on 35mm film and printed on ARCHES® 88, a high-quality 100% cotton matte paper known for its ultra-smooth finish and bright white surface, enhancing the color and detail of the print.
