Abstraction in Architecture and Self

Abstract art never ceases to confuse and intrigue me. Its entirely subjective nature is often mistaken for simplicity, irrelevance and sometimes for non-art! But, in my experience, using simple lines or colours to create a visual composition is great training for the photographer’s eye.

Some the following photos are very minimally edited (contrast and cropping), while others have undergone more post-processing.

the number 17 stands out in yellow flanked by two yellow curves on a black background
an upward arrow on a red square with green borders stands at the bottom of a tall yellow rectangle
a bright yellow slightly curved horizontal strip with shades of orange sits on a black background
an oragnic abstract shape stands in front of a geometric shape
a mesh of curves streaks across the photo witha small exit signand two pillars at the bottom
points of random colours stand behindwhat look like glowing orange orbs of light
a silhouette of the photographer relfects multiple times in a glass pane along with his surroundings
