A series of photographs by a Parisian artist Reynald Drouhin "Landscape Monolith" is a kind of journey into a parallel reality. Picturesque natural landscapes are complemented by a kind of "window", which reflects the surrounding landscape, but only turned upside down. At first glance, everything is simple, but a strange geometric figure attracts attention.
Strict geometric shapes attract many contemporary artists. Suffice it to recall the paintings of Feliz Varini, Philip Allen or Andy Gilmour to see how all kinds of triangles, rhombuses and circles are in demand in art. Reynald Drukhin used a "mirror" polygon for his works, combining the images in such a way that the horizon lines coincide.
This is where the fun begins. Instead of the absurd images that should have been obtained, Reynald Drukhin surprised the audience with unusually organic landscapes. The photographer experimented with various landscapes: in the photo cycle you can see mountain ranges, sandy beaches, and even Arctic glaciers.
The artist focuses on bright natural colors and precise lines. Reynald Drukhin's photo manipulations enable the viewer to look at the familiar world from an unusual angle. But Oscar Wilde rightly noted that surprise is the only thing worth living for.
