Hiroshi Sugimoto — Kattegat Kullaberg
Hiroshi Sugimoto

Kattegat Kullaberg

A vast and meditative seascape rendered in luminous shades of gray, this gelatin silver print captures the still boundary between sea and sky with Sugimoto's signature long-exposure technique, dissolving the waters of Kattegat into a silken, almost ethereal surface. The horizon line bisects the composition with quiet precision, inviting contemplation of time, perception, and the primordial nature of the ocean. Sugimoto's masterful use of light and tone transforms a fleeting moment into something ancient and timeless.
