The job of a photographer, which is experimental by nature, is to write the best scenario for this one-time instant play. A genuine play is inevitably the result of accurate eyes, free mind, and fundamentals of photography at heart. Light is the subject of my works. Unlike the usual process in photography that uses light as a mean to record a scene and tell its story, I am interested in light as a story teller. In fact the scene in my works is the medium to picture light, its mood on different surfaces, and its personality in different spaces. Photography has become a meditation for me. I capture light through a process and technique that I have developed myself and take lots of patience and passion. Sometimes I set the camera in a location and take pictures of natural light through time. Sometimes I move the camera with the change of light in time. All of these efforts are to illustrate light in its most naked way, freeing and extracting it from the sense of time, space, and objects. What satisfy me and urge me to do more and more photography projects are the results which is the ability to depict my childhood fascination and share it with others: the irresistible playful beauty of light.<br/><br/>All of my photographs are purposefully Untitled. I like to give a chance to the viewer to experience their own emotion while they are coinciding with an expression of mine. It is also unnatural to apply a rational meaning to something that is opposite from being a product of intellect as all of my works are pure reflections of my vision, and emotion at the moment the shot is taken.</span></p> <p><span class="Apple-style-span">© <a href="http://www.ArasKarimi.com/" title="aras karimi">Aras Karimi</a></span></p> </blockquote>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/29218246181http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/29218246181Sat, 11 Aug 2012 17:42:39 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m74e3i7fm41qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/27151190202http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/27151190202Fri, 13 Jul 2012 18:21:16 -0400Aras Karimiabstractlightphotography<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m74e0sqekv1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/27151088617http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/27151088617Fri, 13 Jul 2012 18:19:38 -0400Aras Karimiabstractphotographylight<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3xkdiT21E1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/22928815746http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/22928815746Sat, 12 May 2012 18:12:53 -0400Aras Karimilightabstractphotography<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3d9ezOR4T1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/22221794512http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/22221794512Tue, 01 May 2012 19:04:10 -0400abstractAras Karimiphotographylight<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3d96ccd4Q1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/22221414991http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/22221414991Tue, 01 May 2012 18:59:00 -0400Aras Karimiphotographyabstractlight<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2acouQEdS1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://chrisengman.com/">Chris Engman</a></p>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/20866574456http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/20866574456Tue, 10 Apr 2012 18:48:30 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lys7mf8Piv1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16931495822http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16931495822Thu, 02 Feb 2012 15:01:26 -0500Aras Karimiphotographylightabstract photography<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lys59obrf91qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16929413466http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16929413466Thu, 02 Feb 2012 14:10:35 -0500Aras Karimiphotographylightabstract<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lydqcerIeT1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.elinhansdottir.net">Elín Hansdóttir</a></p>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16491298092http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16491298092Wed, 25 Jan 2012 19:21:49 -0500Elín Hansdóttir<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyabidhWSb1qjjt2ho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16391899163http://araskarimi.tumblr.com/post/16391899163Mon, 23 Jan 2012 23:08:37 -0500Aras Karimiabstractphotographylight
