Скачать или смотреть FLUCTUS

Fluctus is a project born from the desire to observe birds from a radically different perspective: from above, at the very moment they take flight.

After years tracing the invisible aerial paths in Ornithographies, I wanted to get closer to the body, the form, the structure, and the color of each bird. That’s how Fluctus emerged: a series of life-sized images captured from a bird’s-eye view, portraying the instant a bird takes off after being released from a wildlife recovery center.

This project is not only a celebration of each species’ unique morphology, but also a reflection on our connection with nature and the urgency of protecting it. Created in collaboration with ornithologists and wildlife centers, Fluctus sits at the intersection of art, science, and conservation.
I invite you to explore this visual journey, where contemplation becomes a form of empathy.
