Altiplano

starting at €90.00

Located in the border regions of Bolivia, Chile, and Peru, the Altiplano is a plateau nearly half the size of Finland, with an average altitude of 3,700 meters in the Andes Mountains. The dry, cool, and windy air sweeps across the shoulders of volcanoes at an altitude of approximately 4,000–6,500 meters, revealing the amazing colors of the bedrock. Water evaporates much more than it rains there, and even the lakes are saturated with salt and other minerals, giving them exciting colors.

RAYS OF COLOR – A series of visual energy

Color is light, and light has a significant effect on us. Although this is partly personal and culture-dependent, it has also been proven by research. Colors affect our emotions and actions. The most popular color is clearly blue, which is perceived as harmonious, reliable, and compassionate. Red attracts attention, is dynamic, pleasant, even seductive. Sunny yellow, considered active and invigorating, increases concentration and feelings of happiness. Relaxing green, on the other hand, is the color of growth, renewal, nature, and peace. No wonder that throughout history, people have enjoyed gazing at fire and water.

The images in this series can be ordered with or without a white border and stylish info text.
