Liquid Colors (Part 2) – Germany Blue & VioletArtwork Information This series was photographed in an old chalk quarry, where a mineral rich, chalk white stream flows into a still, yellow gold lake. From ground level, the subtle movements and transitions are barely visiblebut seen from above, delicate formations and flowing structures begin to emerge. The aerial perspective reveals the contrast between the bright incoming water and the dense, opaque lake, where sediment and motion create soft
The vibrant turquoise water contrasts with dark volcanic lines trapped within the ice
With a diameter of around 50 meters
which can be seen in frozen waters such as this glacial lake in front of Skaftafellsjökull
Trapped air bubbles and subtle textures create intricate patterns
dissolved gases like nitrogen
since winter disappears only slowly
As the river flows toward the ocean
Not much different from a watercolor painting and in constant motion
and glacial melting
The colored rivers that form on frozen lakes are known as "ice rivers" or "ice streams
this series explores the intricate surface of still water shaped by algae
which exposes fresh surfaces and reflects light in various shades of blue
