WHEEL OF LIGHT

Eduardo Santos

WHEEL OF LIGHT, 2025 Chromogenic Metallic Print - Face-mounted 6mm Acrylic float frame 120 x 120 x 3 cm

This work comes from photographing landscapes as I move quickly through them, each place carrying its own colour and atmosphere — from Brazil to Morocco, Ibiza, Queensland, and Laos. Arranged like a colour wheel, it questions how we perceive and remember place. Form gives way to something more felt than seen; a photographic montage that follows visual connection rather than geography. I grew up in sunlight, drawn to the way it softens edges, blurs boundaries, and settles into memory.
