Bruno Paolo Benedetti - Dark Water Reflections

Bruno Paolo Benedetti, born in 1954, began taking photographs in 1968, studying perspective and photographic techniques. From the beginning he was drawn to black-and-white photography, observing the contrasts of nature, the play of light, and interpreting the reality around him. When he was 25, he began working in the darkroom, refining his technique with filters and high-contrast films to create his first surreal and abstract photographs. At the same time he started traveling around Europe and the world: India, Nepal, Bhutan, South America, South Africa, Egypt, and the Comoros Islands are among the places he has visited most. The study of religions and mysticism in all of them inspired his artistic production, especially his surreal photography, where cultural and religious archetypes are depicted.

Abstract Dark Water Reflections

Black and white photographic work characterized by strong contrast and high luminosity values. The image captures a light reflection on a dark water surface, transformed through photographic post-processing that enhances abstraction, grain, and tonal separation. The composition is entirely derived from the original photograph, with no inclusion of external or non-original visual elements.
