Sola

'Sola is a UK photographer whose experiments with the flow, form and movement of light are captured in two series, “Embro” and “Solid Trace”. Embro, defined by the artist as “Echoes of the organic world translated into a synthetic language”, seems to explore how light captured in a photograph can seem just as organic as anything else around us. “Solid Trace”, which the artist calls “An exploration of movement and form in contrastingly stark environments” portrays vibrant swirls of colored light on urban backdrops. For Sola the background is only a foil for works of colorful abstraction, minimal in terms of tonal range and compositional complexity. These explorations look almost like experimental photographs with aged films or accidental exposures found hidden in the bottom of a pile of old images.'

Sola creates interesting imagery with lights, and it becomes the main feature of the image. I like the warming feel that the photo brings.
