LOSCAR NUMAEL:
WHAT WAITS TO BE SEEN
Loscar Numael’s photographs don’t chase spectacle—they hold space. Rooted in presence, shaped by restraint, and deeply informed by Japanese aesthetics, his work unfolds slowly, inviting you to feel rather than simply see. What emerges is a body of work defined by stillness, sincerity, and emotional clarity.
THE VALUE OF SPACE: SEEING BEYOND THE FRAME
Space in an image is not emptiness—it’s presence. It’s what allows a photograph to breathe, to resonate, to feel. By making deliberate choices about what to leave out, we create room for depth, emotion, and meaning. In this post, I explore how embracing space—both in photography and in life—can lead to more powerful, more intentional images.
PHOTOGRAPHY AS INTERPRETATION: MOVING BEYOND THE ILLUSION OF REALITY
What makes a photograph resonate isn’t how closely it mirrors reality—it’s how deeply it reflects you. Beyond what the eye sees lies something more: feeling, memory, and interpretation. The question is—how do you bring that into your images?
BEND DOWN AND TOUCH THE SOIL: THE PRACTICE OF PHOTOGRAPHY
Great images don’t come from luck—they come from showing up, again and again, even when nothing feels special. The more you practice, the more you see. And when the extraordinary appears, you’ll be ready.
