What are the artist's technical choices?
Koublis chooses to use specific angles when capturing a certain area of a landscape in his photographs. He shows only just enough to know what you are looking at/fragments of the subject, but to see it in a different manor. Doing so almost completely makes his compositions abstract, which allows the viewer to make up their own mind about what they are looking at.
What are the artist's conceptual and/or thematic intents?
Koublis wants his photograph to be an exploration of sorts. He is showing the growth/transformation/abstraction of earthy, alive matter. It is showing mundane, every day subjects and turning them into something completely different and out of this world. He is decomposing these subjects within his composition in order to transform them.
How do you respond to these choices and intents?
What Koublis does in his photographs is very smart. Nobody looks at a tree and sees what Koublis reveals in his work. It's like when time flies by so fast, you miss so many things that are beautiful and real and raw. He makes me question myself and my surroundings. You can see things in so many different ways, in such different light. It's kind of sad that it takes an artist like Koublis to realize that.
