Freestyle Landscape Photographer
Sri Lanka
Shiran Madhawa is a Sri Lankan free style photographer in the
disguise of a logistics
expert residing
in Thailand. He unveils a variety of subjects in a fresh and unique perspective
through the lens of his camera which is also a means of expressing his personal feelings.
Shiran's
spectacular photography experiment with a range of genres. He proclaims
to be greatly influenced by the famous photographer Karl
Taylor's ethos that 'variety is the spice of life'. From experimenting with
portraiture, landscapes, cityscapes, fashion and architecture his
personal relationship with his subjects creates a unique impact that transforms
the art of standard photography into a uniquely expressive form.
His photography captures the essence and beauty of architecture with such brilliance that the bricks and wood window sills build up an epitome of serenity. Shiran bewitches the viewers of his photography with a power to see things differently and shows them intricate details that express emotion and depth.
He intertwines his imagination and creativity to reflect curiosity and relaxation through his photography. His photography does not necessarily influence people in any way, but consumes his viewers by wanderlust and the longing to escape into paradise.
He is a self-learnt photographer who hopes to capture and emphasize the realities of life and the value and
beauty of nature as a whole. He
incorporates a variety of perspectives and compositions into his photography.
The challenging compositions, contrasting colors, shadow-detail, focal points
and subject matter that he incorporates in his photography merge in order to
dramatize the portrayal of his subjects.
The depth of wanderlust and nostalgia and its impact on humankind
is made to contend with the graphically striking photographs Shiran captures.
They speak a thousand words that can personally speak to the viewer through their own life
experience.
Shiran likes to see
things vividly, and strongly believes that colors enrich lives and create
inquisitiveness. Through the color usage in his work he connotates the emotion and timelessness
of the world around us.
Shiran Madhawa's work explores the distance between nature and humanity, and tries to rebuild a bridge that can harmonize these aspects. It's this longing for the continuation of this connection that allows his photography to celebrate life with a fresh and impressively unique flavor!
