The beauty of nature and minimalism is captured in this collection entitled 'MinM' by Hengki Koentojoro.
Koentojoro is an Indonesian photographer with a talent in creating riveting minimal art. The photographs project a feeling of desolate life with stark black and white hues. The choice of subjects and focal points is what adds to this lonesome theme; most of the emphasis is on empty boats, isolated wharfs and a person walking alone on a beach. The photographer has chosen to shoot by the water where fog and mist play a big role.
The subjects are usually refined to look like dark silhouettes while the contrasting background glows in a sombre gray. MinM by Hengki Koentojoro presents the art of minimalism photography by compiling nature, dark colors and deserted lands.
