By capturing this building from this particular vantage point, I wanted to transcend ordinary architecture to reveal its sculptural dimension. The upward angle and black and white treatment transform this urban facade into an abstract composition where concrete dialogues with space. The contrast between smooth surfaces and the rhythmic central band creates a visual tension that guides the eye towards infinity. I chose to isolate the subject against a dark background to amplify its presence and verticality, thus transforming an everyday architectural element into a meditation on urban geometry. This image is part of my ongoing exploration of the hidden poetry in modern architecture and how light can reveal the extraordinary in the ordinary.

When photographing this simple V-shaped pillar anchored in a bed of pebbles, then deliberately inverting the image, I wanted to explore how a change in perspective can radically transform our perception of the everyday. What fascinated me about this composition was the immediate metamorphosis: a mundane architectural element transforms into an organic sculpture evoking a mineral tree.
I chose black and white to accentuate the contrasts between the smooth surface of the concrete and the rough texture of the stones, while eliminating color distractions that might have betrayed the true nature of the materials. This chromatic abstraction strengthens the illusion and invites a more poetic reading of the whole.
What particularly moves me in this image is the tension it reveals between the artificial and the natural - how human construction and geological elements seem to reverse their roles here: concrete becomes organic, while stones appear to defy gravity. Through this simple act of inversion, I wanted to invite viewers to rediscover the hidden beauty in the utilitarian structures that surround us, and show how our perception can be transformed by a simple change in viewpoint.
