About the artwork

What happens in the moment just before you submerge? This photo shows a lone swimmer, captured on the serene Issyk-Kul Lake in Kyrgyzstan. The composition is clean and minimalist: sand, water and sky form three calm planes that together feel almost abstract. Only the figure: small, concentrated, at the point of surrender to the water, breaks this stillness.

My inspiration for this work came from a desire for simplicity and introspection. In a world full of stimuli and movement, I wanted to create an image that actually stands still, in which the viewer takes a breath.

The atmosphere is calm, meditative. The swimmer, with his back to the camera, invites you to look with him, to feel with him. The water is not only a physical space, but also a symbol: of silence, cleansing, and letting go.

In an interior, this work brings calm and balance. The minimalist play of colours and clear lines make it suitable for both modern and warm spaces, where it adds both stillness and depth.
