INTIMACY

Since 2011

At dusk, on a full moon evening, there was nothing in front of me but a vast expanse of serene and silent water. I was there, in the dark, sharing a magical moment of intimacy with only the living beings of the coral reef as my reference point, sublimating this unrealistic spectacle.

Martin has been practicing fluorescence photography since 2011, yet he remains fascinated by each immersive experience that comes his way. Corals feed Martin Colognoli’s perpetual quest for new shapes and colors.

Did you know that UV light absorbed by some living things is re-emitted at different wavelengths? Leaving a spectrum of colors with sparkling lights. True phenomenon of the underwater life, we do not know completely the true interest of fluorescence and the role it plays in the evolution. This is undoubtedly one of the reasons why it is so fascinating.
