Architecture has always had an approach to photography, because, firstly, both are considered art forms, and secondly, because the style of photography that encompasses architecture has always sought to understand the dimensions and perspectives of that subject, which in this case is architectural structures. Although it isn't created from a building, you can get thousands of different photographic results in varying angles and perspectives, due to the same complexity of shapes designed by the same architect. However, the more complex the design of that structure, the more variations there will be. Also, in those buildings, let's say a little more minimalist, the results are less complex but very harmonious.
As I always say, I'm not an expert in architecture, although at some point in my life I was interested in studying it. But I've certainly always enjoyed seeing all kinds of structural designs. For me, it's wonderful to be able to appreciate all those dimensions in this visual field, within the visual space that your eyes can see and, of course, capture with the lens of a camera, in order to structure those forms within the photographic frame of the camera itself. It's a whole universe, so to speak.
Now, for this occasion, where I'm showing this series of photographs in reference to what I said above, I'm showing you a series of photos where, of course, the main subjects are architectural forms, especially buildings in the city where I live in Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela, which has long been characterized by the good planning and execution of very notable urban projects. Here we can see the same building called Leofling in more than three photos, but the difference is in composing them from different angles to obtain different perspectives of the same subject. As I mentioned, thousands of results can be achieved, but for that, I would have to spend much more time circling the entire building and visualizing. Therefore, I always try to look for series of patterns in these compositions, such as the windows of the buildings, the incidence of light to create contrast on the buildings, or simply to seek harmony in the structural forms, between lines that are perhaps formed by bricks or other shapes.
All photographs are my own.
