“Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was.” (Dag Hammarskjold)
This surreal black-and-white composition blends a rugged mountain landscape with the subtle contours of a human face. The terrain’s valleys and peaks seamlessly merge with facial features, particularly the eyes and lips, creating a mesmerizing illusion of nature and identity intertwined. The dramatic sky, textured clouds, and winding river add depth and mystery to the image. The monochrome palette enhances the contrast between the organic elements of the land and the human form, evoking themes of unity, nature’s omnipresence, and the deep connection between humanity and the earth.
Based in Switzerland, artist Tania Amrein is known for her gorgeously detailed, close-up portraits. Each one is uniquely layered with images of landscapes and architecture, creating mind-bending double exposure images that make a viewer look twice.
