silence
The aura of abandoned places
The photographer and architect Gabriela Torres Ruiz shows how silence can be captured photographically and the associations it engenders. With a fine sense for the poetic interplay between light, color, and space, her “Silence” series juxtaposes landscape motifs and interior photographs in diptychs and triptychs. The depicted decay of the buildings alongside enchanted alpine and forest landscapes make reference to the cycle between architecture and nature, which ultimately reclaims its environment.The melancholy beauty of Iceland was the source of inspiration for the series. The photographer has since sought out further abandoned and forgotten places for the purpose of reflecting on the phenomenon of “silence.”
