Sola
Presented by iGallery
It’s just a glimpse, an elusive moment that art photographer Sola seeks to capture in his images. Based in Birmingham England, Sola is considered the pioneer of landscape Light Graffiti. Describing his type of work, he notes “I think there’s something very special about the fact that the light sculptures never really exist in real life, it makes them very precious and esoteric. Only the camera can capture them so they live and breathe in a digital world and the only way of grounding them is when they are printed.” Sola, explains his process as two elements of site-specific photography; the landscape shot in ambient light and the introduction of an artificial light source. He ensures that his approach is,“created by camera at the time of the shoot and requires no special outdoor tricks or computer manipulation of the images.” The contrast of subtle background setting to the controlled motion and waves of bright artificial light is the essence of his work and attraction that draws viewers closer to his images. Marketing of Sola’s posters, prints and originals are handled exclusively through www.lightbombing.bigcartel.com.
