Alpine glaciers
In the heart of the Alps, where time sculpts ephemeral wonders, Thomas Crauwels pursues an artistic quest among glaciers, veritable cathedrals of ice and shadow. For over fifteen years, from Chamonix to Piz Bernina, via the icy expanses of Aletsch and Zermatt, he has studied the abstract grandeur of the most imposing crevasses, capturing the essence of their fleeting beauty. For him, these glaciers are not mere ice formations, but living landscapes, natural canvases featuring captivating plays of light and lines that defy comprehension.
Each glacier, with its striking contrasts, becomes an exploration ground for abstract forms, where each crevasse and serac reveals a story of movement and transformation. These frozen titans, constantly reshaped by the whims of the climate, provide Thomas with an infinite source of inspiration, where light shatters on ice edges, creating compositions of dramatic intensity.
Through his lens, Thomas Crauwels immortalizes the silent poetry of these fragile giants, witnesses to the immutable cycles of nature. His work celebrates the ephemeral beauty of glaciers, in an intimate dance between light, ice and shadow, capturing the soul of the Alps in all its fleeting splendor.
