Useless Loop
This is a limited edition print
“Hovering above Useless Loop in Shark Bay, I was struck by the surreal mosaic of shapes and colours unfolding below. This aerial perspective transforms the landscape into a geometric marvel, where human-made salt ponds harmonise with the natural palette of blues, greens, and earthy tones. The intersecting lines, soft gradients of colour, and orderly shapes blend the industrial and the organic, creating a striking tapestry that celebrates both human ingenuity and nature’s beauty. As I captured this scene, I felt a sense of awe for the delicate balance between purpose and aesthetic. It’s a view that reminds me of a painter’s canvas, where colours and shapes are carefully curated to form an artwork that’s both functional and visually captivating. Standing beside me, you would feel the enormity of this landscape and the quiet elegance hidden in its patterns, a testament to the beauty found when we look at the world from a different angle.
This image forms part of a broader series that was awarded 4th place in the prestigious Australian Landscape Photography Awards. Celebrated for its innovation, clarity of vision, and reimagining of familiar environments through an abstract lens, the series offers a fresh perspective on the intersection of human impact and natural design.”
