‘Underneath the Surface’ is an alternative underwater photography exhibition that boldly explores a subtle realm between art and photojournalism. It consists of single angle shots of individuals deprived of air and opulent with fire, with being, with light, with black, with white. It’s a journey sparked by curiosity, flawlessly tuned to detecting individual explosions of energy and the ripples they leave on the surface.
The ripples are numerous, most go unnoticed by the mainstream, muted by stereotypes and omitted by learnt priorities. Their manifestations, however, on human psyche and physique are unmistakable.
