BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Enchanted Waters


Juraj Lipscher’s works in the series Enchanted Waters are Impressionist-like images of magically reflected water landscapes full of mottled light and buoyant joy. Lipscher’s photographs reveal a landscape of magic. In the tradition of the Impressionists, he captures nature’s continuous transformations in brief, enigmatic moments. But these images leave nothing to chance – to the contrary, the artist determines the moment in which nature reveals herself as a work of art. A leaf, yellow with autumn and blurred by the water’s rippled surface, looks as if painted in oil and assumes a completely different density. Lipscher experiments with the visual effects the rays of sun create on the surface of the water.


His images gambol with the age-old conflict between appearance and reality. Playing on the theme “A tree is a tree is a tree” Lipscher doubles the perspective, using the water’s surface as a second lens. With the reflection’s help the photographer is able to discover nature’s colors anew. As he describes it, “The forest became a fairytale to me, one that I illustrate with my photos.”


The resulting images are ebulliently beautiful in their indirectness. The photographer creates an imaginary landscape from the real one, which is the source – one in which anything is possible. Lipscher’s works have been exhibited in the Musée de l´Elysée and at the New York Photo Festival, among others.
