This series captures the mesmerizing shapes and vibrant colors of Iceland's glacier rivers, as seen from above. Carved by the relentless flow of meltwater, these rivers carry fine sediments and minerals, which create swirling patterns and hues only visible from the sky. This series explores how the geological forces sculpt the landscape into forms that challenge our perception, transforming the familiar into something almost unrecognizable and purely artistic.
