Refractions

555 Tokens

Refractions is about the moment light stops being straight and starts telling stories through matter.

Light, bent

A beam is simple until it hits something. Refractions celebrates that collision: the bend through a glass edge, the scatter through a prism, the smear through a droplet, the rainbow hidden in an ordinary object.

Matter as Lens

Here, glassware, prisms, lenses, water and crystal are not props — they are instruments. Surfaces, edges and thicknesses become parameters in a silent optical experiment.

The art lives in that experiment: in how a simple setup can produce an unexpectedly intricate pattern, and how a precise composition can turn raw physics into something quietly beautiful.

Precision and Calm

Refractions favours clarity over chaos. Every image feels like a deliberate studio photograph: controlled backgrounds, balanced exposure, clean lines and disciplined colour.

It is a patient look at how little it takes — one beam, one object, one surface — to transform light into something worth staring at.
