Geuldal, Nederland 1905

This stereoscopic photograph of Geuldal in the Netherlands is anonymous, which I find really interesting. It's like, who was this person and what made them decide to capture this scene in that moment? The sepia tones give the whole thing a dreamy, almost melancholic feel, like looking at a memory. I think about how photography is like painting, it’s a process of layering, and revealing, like a slow reveal. I'm drawn to the way the light catches on the water, those little glimmers and ripples. See how the photographer paid attention to the texture of the embankment, that rough, grassy edge against the smooth flow of the stream? It reminds me that art-making is about seeing, really seeing, and then finding a way to translate that vision into something tangible. It’s about the conversation between the artist, the subject, and the medium, and the ongoing dialogue between artists, and all those things add up to a richness of interpretation that’s always open to new perspectives.
