Ashen Namibian Photography

The Adrian De Sa Garces Walvis Bay Images Showcase Pale Coloring

— May 13, 2014 — Art & Design
These Adrian De Sa Garces pictures take viewers on a faded tour of Namibia's Walvis Bay. Born in the region, Garces aims to photograph many of the areas that were dear to him as a child, many of which haven't changed over the last 20 years.

In his explanation of these pictures, Garces admits that he rarely ever stops taking snapshots when in Namibia. The country's vast and varied landscape is inspiring and eye-catching, and that is certainly apparent in his images of ivory churches, children playing on the beach, white stones and tropical trees.

Consistent within this Namibian project is Garces' depiction of pale, pastel colors. Although the photos are vivid, the tones are muted, creating a vidid memory in the minds of viewers.
Trend Themes
1. Pale Coloring Photography - Opportunity to offer a unique, dreamy aesthetic to wedding and event photography, and to expand the market for home decor prints.
2. Childhood Nostalgia - Opportunity to create products and experiences that tap into the longing for simpler times and cherished memories.
3. Vivid-muted Contrast - Opportunity to experiment with bold, vibrant images softened with a washed-out aesthetic to attract a wider audience.
Industry Implications
1. Photography - Opportunity for photographers to create a niche market specializing in artistically capturing the essence of familiar, yet visually stunning locations and landscapes.
2. Home Decor - Opportunity to offer unique, eye-grabbing wall art, throw pillows, and other decorative items that bring a touch of artistic sophistication to any room.
3. Event Planning - Opportunity to utilize the evocative, child-friendly element of the pale color palettes and nostalgic imagery to create memorable, emotionally-charged events with a touch of whimsy.
