Underwater photography has been taken to sensual new depths by internationally acclaimed photographer Hugh Arnold, in his first UK exhibition Agua Nacida.
His beautifully ethereal nudes capture the graceful weightlessness of floating in the deep blue. The images, which were shot in Fiji and Gozo, are meant to celebrate a woman’s life cycle, from the womb to adulthood. Arnold calls life under the sea “a fairytale world”, in which “the colours, the light, even our breath, which we can’t see above water, add wonderful dimensions.”
Well, we tried the same with an iPhone wrapped in cling film and, yeah, it didn’t go so well.
Agua Nacida runs from 16 January-14 February at Mead Carney Fine Art; meadcarney.com
