Photographed in Oia, Santorini, this black and white image is structured around depth through separation of planes.
The composition is divided between foreground architecture and a distant horizon. Built elements occupy the right side, while the left opens toward the sea and layered landforms. A dark volcanic mass anchors the center.
The environment consists of cliffside structures, terraces, and a small chapel positioned near the edge. The sea extends into the background, with faint islands forming horizontal layers.
The relationship between elements is contrasting. The built environment is contained and geometric, while the natural forms remain irregular and expansive. The central rock mass acts as a visual barrier between the two.
Light is distributed softly across the scene, with reduced contrast in the distant areas. The foreground architecture retains clearer tonal definition, separating it from the atmosphere and horizon.
Part of the Chorōs series, a body of work studying rhythm and musical structure within static visual compositions.
Printed as an archival pigment print on Hahnemühle fine art paper.
