Photographic art has in its product, photographs, the inherent characteristic of two-dimensionality. But, ‘the play of light and shadows, and of colors’ (considered here as a form) gives certain images a three-dimensional character. It is an example of this characteristic that I want to show with one of my photos as a case of ‘an abstract optical illusion’.
A simple image (photograph) of columns from an urban viaduct in my city (São Carlos, SP-Southeast Brazil) was worked on in this collage to create an optical illusion, an exercise in abstraction in the visual art that I like to make.
Hope you like it.

I'm an amateur photographer based in the city of São Carlos, São Paulo state, SE Brazil.
I used to make photographs since I was about 15-17 years old. My first camera was a Olympus Trip, an analogue camera. Many years after that I switched to several digital cameras. Presently I own a Nikon D500 with a small set of lenses and a Fujifilm X100T 23mm.
A few years after my retirement as an university professor, after teaching Environmental Chemistry at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) for 45 years, I decided to invest money and time dedicating myself more seriously to photography. I´ve taken on-line courses as well as I´ve participated to various photography festival across Brazil.
By far, my biggest interest is street photography. And in it, I'm interested in portraits, everyday street scenes and architecture.
