ABOUT THIS WORK

▪️ Submerged, 2013
Archival pigment print, numbered and authenticated

Underwater photography gives Stanev a different way of working with the human body. Water changes movement, light and gravity at once, allowing familiar forms to behave differently before the camera. Submerged is one of a number of works in which he has returned to this environment over the years.

Published in Maxim, Issue #94, October 2013.
