Artist Debora Cartagena

Brookhaven, Georgia USA

Musical Notes

Fine Art Photography

Artist Statement
This particular image was shot during my trip to Imaging USA 2015 Photography convention located in Nashville, TN. As I was walking through the Opryland Resort and Convention Center, I noticed there was a massive body of water that ran through out the middle of the convention center. The reflections seen on the water immediately captured my attention and reminded me of musical notes, hence the name of my piece “Musical Notes”. If one is to look up closely, you could notice all the coins people had thrown into the water reflected within the image. It only seemed logical that this particular image was capture in Nashville, home to legendary country music venues such as the Grand Ole Opry House, home of the famous “Grand Ole Opry” stage and radio show.
Macro is defined as the study of viewing objects up close, whereas abstract is defined as difficult to understand or abstruse. As a scientist who is also passionate about photography, my work is an exploration of these two art forms. My work leads me to explore unique angles, space, locations, shapes, reflections and light. I am particularly interested in the beauty this world has to offer that is not easily seen by the human eye. I am fascinated that I can capture such beauty though the lens. The colors in my work are provided by my surroundings, for I seldom manipulate my imagery via computer software. In addition to capturing vibrant colors, black and white imagery is also an art form I enjoy conveying through my photography.
The views expressed by our artists in their artist statements do not necessarily represent the views of our art galleries. Artists can be visually expressive but may verbally misrepresent their true intentions or ideas. Please note that we support expression, whether it is controversial or not, but our intention is never to offend.
