"There is an open book always for all eyes: nature."
Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Geneva, 1712-1778) Philosopher
Naturalis is a photographic project that explores the deep connection between humans and nature. Through evocative and carefully composed images, the viewer is invited to reflect on how nature envelops us, nourishes us, and defines us. Nature not only surrounds us; we are part of it, and everything we create is an expression of its infinite creativity.
The images of Naturalis capture the essence of the unity between humans and nature. Naked bodies merge with natural elements. Landscapes become stages where nature creates through us, sculpting forms, textures, and colors that evoke deep emotions and reflections.
In this project, I aim to explore and experiment with the following themes:
Fusion: The physical and spiritual interconnection between the human body and natural elements.
Nudity: The vulnerability and beauty of the human body in its natural state, free from artifice.
Natural Creativity: Nature as a source of inspiration and muse for artistic creation.
Spirituality: The deep and transcendent connection we experience in nature.
I create the photographs keeping in mind the following key elements:
Minimalism: The images are composed of essential elements, eliminating distractions and focusing attention on the connection between humans and nature.
Symbolism: Natural elements are used as symbols to express ideas and emotions related to unity, creativity, spirituality, and the fragility of life.
Natural Light: Natural light is utilized to create an organic atmosphere and highlight the natural beauty of the subjects and landscapes.
Naturalis is a photographic project that goes beyond aesthetics. It is an invitation to reconnect with nature, to feel part of it, and to reconnect with our essence.
