“Colloquialism” is a series of abstract photography that delves into the visual representation of colloquial phrases. Each photograph was meticulously crafted to evoke the essence of these familiar expressions. Beyond basic lighting adjustments, the images remain untouched, preserving the authenticity of the shoot.
Every element within the frame was deliberately chosen to reinforce the intended narrative or meaning, while also allowing spontaneity to guide the composition. I intend for viewers to engage with the images by guessing the colloquial phrases they represent, with the possibility of interpreting more than one phrase or saying from each piece. This balance between intention and randomness resulted in a collection that invites viewers to see everyday language in a new, abstract light.
