Allegorical Abstractionism is the conceptual core of my artistic practice — a movement that transforms photography into metaphor and motion into meaning. It is not a style, but a language: a way of translating the invisible dimensions of reality through light, gesture, and time.

In these works, abstraction does not aim to escape the world, but to reinterpret it. Trees, seas, and architectural forms become symbols; movement becomes thought. Each image emerges from long, intentional exposures — seconds of dialogue between hand, camera, and light — where emotion and structure fuse into a single gesture. Allegorical Abstractionism stands at the threshold between painting and cinema, between what is seen and what is felt: a visual philosophy where every frame becomes both vision and allegory.

The Concept — Where Allegory Meets Abstraction

Allegorical Abstractionism was born from a desire to bridge two worlds that rarely coexist in contemporary photography: emotion and thought. In traditional abstraction, the visible world dissolves; in allegory, meaning hides beneath form. This movement unites both impulses — abstraction as the visual language of feeling, and allegory as its intellectual depth. The gesture of the camera becomes the medium through which metaphor takes shape.

The technique behind this language is rooted in long exposure — the precise time needed to build an image where forms blur into energy yet never vanish entirely. The shutter closes just before reality disappears, preserving the trace of trees, towers, or horizons as echoes within the abstraction. It is in this balance — between dissolution and remembrance — that the poetic power of the image resides. Each photograph becomes a “mixed abstraction”: born from the world, but transcending it.

This controlled motion turns photography into an act of interpretation rather than capture. The exposure becomes a performance of light, a measured duration in which meaning slowly emerges from movement. Allegorical Abstractionism thus redefines the photographic act: it does not record what the eye sees, but what the soul perceives in the instant before form gives way to dream.

Iconic Works — The Visual Heart of Allegorical Abstractionism

The following photographs embody the visual essence of Allegorical Abstractionism. Each transforms reality into metaphor — where light becomes thought, and motion reveals what lies beyond sight. Though born from different series, they share the same inner language: the dialogue between structure and dissolution, between what is visible and what is felt

I. Light and Humanity — The Allegory of Conflict

• The Sun Against the Human Walls — Selected Works I
• Decadent Golden City — Selected Works I
• Nature Against Humanity — Selected Works I
• Specters Chase Lights — Selected Works I

These images explore the tension between the organic and the constructed — light confronting the boundaries of human creation, revealing the fragile balance between civilization and the elemental.

II. Nature and Genesis — The Myth of Origin

• Eden Tree I, II, III, IV — Eden Tree Special Cycle
• Stone Tree — Tree Collection
• Fenced Magic Valley — Selected Works II
• Path to the Luminous Forest — Paths Collection

Here the natural world becomes the stage of allegory — trees as divine symbols, forests as thresholds between matter and spirit. The gesture transforms nature into myth.

III. Light and Time — The Abstract Continuum

• From Dawn to Night — Abstraction Collection
• Wave of Light — Abstraction Collection
• Four Stages of Natural Life — Abstraction Series / Transitional

In these works, light is not illumination but duration. Through long exposures, time expands within a single frame, shaping the abstract rhythm of existence.

IV. Catastrophe and Creation — The Elemental Encounter

• Sea Volcano — Volcano La Palma Proyect
• Sun Between Heaven and Earth — Encrypted Sun Cycle
• Lightning Causes Fire — Encrypted Sun Cycle
• Inner Sun — Encrypted Sun Cycle
• Tsunami in Three Times — Sea Collection

Fire and water, eruption and calm — opposing forces that unite in the act of creation. These works embody the movement’s belief that destruction and birth are one continuous gesture.

V. The Urban and the Existential — Symbols of Modern Allegory

• Bell Tower Between Heaven and Hell II— Selected Works II
• Urban Alignment — Selected Works II
• Child and Penguin — Selected Works II
• The Glare That Consumes the Sun — Selected Works II

Architecture, light and isolation merge to express modern metaphors — between ascent and fall, silence and presence, humanity and transcendence.
