Artist Creates Mesmerising Moving Photographs From Wave-Scapes

Here’s a three way artistic collaboration, featuring incredible wave-scapes by Ray Collins, masterfully brought to life by Armand Dijcks and then beautifully scored by the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra.

Ray Collins has been posting some of the mesmerising  cinemagraph images on his instagram, and now the artist behind them has released a full length clip featuring all seven of their collaborations. Here’s what Armand had to say about the project:

“Over the past months I’ve been working with Australian photographer Ray Collins to bring his amazing oceanscapes to life in the form of cinemagraphs, a blend between photography and video. Each cinemagraph is created from one of Ray’s stills, and sets it in infinite motion, making a unique moment in time last forever.

These cinemagraphs inspired André Heuvelman from the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra to get together with pianist Jeroen van Vliet to record a very moving custom soundtrack, which I combined with a selection of the cinemagraphs.
