Organic Traces is a visual investigation of vegetal matter. 

​

Bruises, cuts, and signs of decomposition become elements of a new aesthetic—

not mere defects but traces of an evolving process that shapes the subject and visually redefines it.

​

Often, defects on fruits and vegetables do not appear aesthetically appealing; in fact, they can evoke repulsion.

However, what initially seems “repulsive”, can become an exaltation of the artistic aesthetic
of these details, highlighting how they can generate fascinating and unexpected visual forms.

​

Transformation does not represent an end.

​

Some of the depicted subjects at times challenge the eye. The surfaces and textures of these elements can let the eyes perceive different things.

This visual ambiguity creates a space for interpretation, where organic matter transforms into something new.

​

What is commonly seen as imperfection or decay becomes, through photographic lens, a space for reinterpreting beauty.

 

This project revolves around
the exploration of ugliness-beauty, reinterpretation, materiality, and nature.
