Artdoc Photography Magazine - 04/2023

In this issue

We perceive the world literally in an aesthetic way. Through our senses, we see shapes and colours, forms and lines, brightness and darkness. These purely visual impressions reach our eyes as the starting point of the creation of deeper meaning. Shapes and colours fill our lives and ignite mental processes of significance. In this Artdoc Issue, we bring photographers who work with shapes, lines and colours to express emotions and stories in their photographs. Italian artist Noemi Comi uses alienating purple and turquoise colours to convey the mysterious tale of the Werewolves. Spanish photographer Andrés Gallardo Albajar photographed stunning architecture full of vibrant lines. In his series Urban Geometry, he documented dazzling cityscapes in many countries. British documentary photographer found colourful scenes in the sandy backyard of Saudi Arabia, telling human stories of the large, unknown country. In this issue, we also feature nine photographers who show their personal relation to colour and emotions. They demonstrate a great sensitivity to the wonderful world of aesthetic forms.
