Shapes of water #2

"Shapes of Water" is Karim Carella’s new photographic series for 2026, previewed at the end of 2025 through the presentation of three works.

Rooted in a minimalist and abstract approach to landscape, the series reduces form to its emotional essence, transforming water into a space of suspension and quiet introspection.

A subtle duality runs through the project: the darker images emerge from emotional unrest, while the lighter works, despite their apparent serenity, conceal a deeper desire for disappearance.

Light and darkness coexist as different states of the same inner landscape.

Here, one senses a need to dissolve silently into the image — suspended between presence and absence. (Adrian K. Garet)

SHAPES OF WATER #2

“Shapes of water #2” suspends a single wave between appearance and disappearance, transforming the sea into a soft, vibrating field of light.

Gentle horizontal streaks blur the boundary between water and sky, so that the image hovers on the threshold of abstraction while remaining anchored in the memory of a shoreline.

A cool palette of silvery blues is brushed with faint warm reflections, suggesting the last light of day dissolving across the surface. In this photograph, movement is slowed to a whisper, and the landscape becomes an inner state: a quiet urge to fade, to let the self loosen and disperse into a calm, endless expanse.
