Fluid

Water, mud, sunlight and bamboo poles are the ingredients for this group of almost abstract images. Like in life, everything is fluid and instable. The receding tide created these lines that last only a short time. The next wave draws an entirely different picture – impermanence and transience.

Hilda Champion is a German/American fine art photographer born near Munich, Germany. She has been living in Naples, Florida since 2001.

Her aspiration in photography is to release the poetry of the ordinary and help people see the un-seen. She tries to show an abstraction of what she sees, free of distractions, and describes her images as “based on a true fantasy”.
