CRITIQUE: See Details Below
Minimalist photography focuses on simplicity & its artistic style can be encapsulated by the quote, “less is more.” Minimalist photographers achieve this effect by casting aside all the unnecessary components in creating their works.[10]
“As an approach in photography, minimalism or minimalistic photography could be taken by the photographer in all genres. No matter you are a portrait, architecture, landscape etc. photographer, minimalist photos are always an option as long as you have a minimal look toward your surroundings” -Milad Safabakhsh, Founder of Minimalist Photography Awards.[11]
Minimalist photography often features a single subject with nature as the background, or nature itself as both background and subject. Common motifs in minimalist works include geometric or repeating patterns, contrast in lines and texture, and emphasized depth and distance. This last element is often used to express a feeling of vastness and to try and capture the feeling of being in an incredibly open space in nature. Ref. Wikipedia.
