This abstract photographic work, titled "Weathered Door", captures the essence of impermanence and the beauty of decay. As an abstract art photographer, I am fascinated by the textures and colours created by the ravages of time. This picture shows an old blue wooden door with white panels, whose paint has flaked off in several places. The weathered surfaces and rusty metal locks tell a story of neglect and ageing, but at the same time they exude unparalleled charm and character.
In my work, I look for the aesthetic in the everyday and the forgotten. This door, with its rich history and unique patina, is a perfect example of how decay can transform into art. The combination of the blue and white colour scheme evokes a sense of nostalgia and melancholy, similar to the works of artists such as Anselm Kiefer and Gerhard Richter, who also explore the beauty of decay and the passage of time in their art.
By capturing this door, I hope to make the viewer reflect on the impermanence of material objects and the stories they can tell. This work invites reflection and appreciation of the hidden beauty in the everyday and the passage of time.
