Neoplastic Landscape

NEOPLASTIC LANDSCAPES was born from the idea of applying the concepts ("the visible has a geometric foundation") of Neoplasticism, developed by the Dutch painter Piet Mondrian, to landscape photography. Using the computer, landscape's pictures were duplicated, reflected, juxtaposed looking for the equivalence of opposites ("the balance of symmetry"). Geometric lines were created by the four natural elements: Water, Air, Earth, Fire. "See the composition, the color and the line and not the representation as such. To come to perceive the subject as an impediment." Fragments of the particular join together to form another reality, which confuses our usual perception of reality. A combinations of lines and colors express a general beauty with a supreme conscience. Free oneself from the natural aspect of things, so as not to represent them: only then can the tension of the form, the intensity of the color, and the harmony presented by nature be expressed with an abstract appearance. Plastically seen, everything merges into a single image of color and shape. Nature rises from its materiality and becomes a magnificent obsession made by Form, Sign and Color, pure Geometry (P. Mondrian)
