“I want to capture the moment when you feel the magnitude of nature and the small things that make your body react to it. Like the glint of light you see coming off the water on a hot summer’s day or the fear that comes over you when you dive deep underwater and you look up to see the surface.”

These emotional cues can be captured with colour.
