These images from the series ‘You will always Be’ are composed solely of water in fusion with light captured at Apollo’s Fountain in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles. They all come from the same digitally destructured and restructured photograph used repeatedly to create a visual representation of energy flow, passage through time and space, and the continuous cycle of Being. The imagery alludes to stages of our evolution from our embryonic beginning to physical demise and the release of our indestructible energy back into the universe.
Mercedes Parodi is a British photographic artist, based in London and in Aix en Provence, France, who explores from a psychological and existential perspective themes relating to power, perception of reality, energetic forces, mindset, self-empowerment and wellbeing.
