Fluid Forms I Ingo Arndt: The Art of Water and Sand

Fluid Forms I Ingo Arndt: The Art of Water and Sand

Picture shot at the Glacial Rivers in Iceland in 2023. Glacier water flows widely from Iceland‘s large ice fields towards the coast. Enriched with minerals and tiny algae, it shines in all kinds of colors over the black sand of volcanic origin. Viewed from a helicopter, a completely new world is revealed, created by the untamable power of water. SmithDavidson Gallery is the official gallery for Ingo Arndt with access to the full collection.

Picture shot in Lencois Dunes, Brazil in 2023. Lencois Maranhenses is without a doubt one of the most unusual landscapes in the world. After the rainy season a river delta stretches out in the middle of a huge dune landscape and lakes with crystal clear water lie between the hills from snow-white sand. Sun, wind and rain change the dunes anew every year, creating a constantly changing painting of nature.

Picture shot in Iceland in 2023. After photographing glacial rivers from airplanes and helicopters in Iceland for my series »WaterShapes«, I looked at the volcanic landscape from the ground and I hiked into the island‘s countless lava fields. Some were covered with moss, others still showed the structures of the viscous lava as it flew through the land- scape. What impressed me most was the monochrome surfaces that had crumbled into black sand over thousands of years due to erosion. The constantly blowing wind in Iceland sometimes creates a wavy structure on the surface of the sandy areas. Rain and wind conjure up a black-grey mosaic of dry and damp areas. Where the few plants were able to conquer the barren habitat, splashes of color shine from the seemingly endless sandy desert. After sunset I waited on the coast at »Black Beach« for the right wave for my long exposures and spent days photo- graphing »Diamond Beach«, a black beach where chunks of ice wash up that glitter like gems and are washed by the waves of the roaring North Atlantic. A selection of the best pictures from my sandy adventures became this series of photographs, »BlackSand«.

Picture shot at the Wadden Sea in Germany in 2023. Tidal creeks begin near the coast as shallow channels, branch out and enlarge - becoming a system of veins in the sand. The shape and form is constantly changing due to the tides and the elmental force of nature. The light plays with the colors of water and sand, always revealing new patterns.
