Within a context of deforestation of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, I seek, through a digital process, to emphasize details of vegetation in scenes of nature that, although may seen common, reveal the delicacy and perfection of the flora that surrounds us. The intention of the work, in addition to highlighting the environment and its beauty, is to embrace the technology currently available in image editing softwares and propose a reflection on the use of these in complement or replacement to traditional artistic techniques.
Antonio Salaverry is a Brazilian photographer born in Rio de Janeiro, 1986. His Portfolio has a wide range of different styles, from urban and nature scenes to street, abstractions and surrealistic images.
Awarded nationally and internationally in relevant competitions, Antonio has been increasingly developing his authorial work. To him, photographing in the field is just the start of an artistic process which takes its final form after digitally processing the image and aims to transport the observer into a reality different than the usual one.
