Amsterdam and Paris-based duo Arturo + Bamboo -the collaborative alias of Arthur Groeneveld and Bamboo van Kampen- unveil a distilled series of Greek impressions. Shot on film, the photographs unfold as pared-back meditations on summer: sun-washed facades, the shimmer of the sea, the grain of warm sand. Minimal yet deeply evocative, the images oscillate between abstract composition and fleeting memory, inviting viewers into a quiet world of stillness and light. “We dived into our archive and found a minimalist collection of Mediterranean memories with a calming palette,” they share. The warm, ethereal images serve as “mementos of a blissful simplicity that once was, as well as avenues of escape for both the photographers and the viewer.” “These abstracts are able to evoke those perfect memories and bring the hot summer sun, salty sea, and warm sand a little closer in reach,” they add. Through crisp, clean lines, voluminous shapes, and delicately lit details, the series offers both a personal archive of bliss and a timeless vision of coastal reverie.
