Photographed in Meteora, this black and white image is structured around vertical dominance and elevated placement.
The monastery is positioned at the upper right edge of the frame, resting on a steep rock formation. Its placement isolates it from the rest of the landscape while maintaining a controlled alignment with the horizon.
The lower half of the frame is occupied by dense vegetation and dark tonal mass. The terrain rises unevenly, creating a layered base that contrasts with the clarity of the sky.
The relationship between the built structure and the natural formation is direct. The monastery appears as an extension of the rock rather than an addition, reinforcing a single vertical axis.
Light is diffused through heavy cloud cover. The tonal range is compressed in the midtones, with strong separation in the highlights of the sky and the deep shadows of the land.
Part of the Chorōs series, a body of work exploring structure, rhythm, and spatial relationships within Greek landscapes.
