MINA MIMBU
Fallen Clouds
Dreamscapes
Enter a new dimension in which magic and candour merge, in the world of Mina Mimbu and the poetic touch and emotions of Alastair Magnaldo.
The artists in this selection present imaginary landscapes in creative and unexpected ways. They demonstrate that beyond its strictly mimetic function, photography can also be a representational tool to create playful fantasy worlds.
A Mysterious World
Mina Mimbu
Mina Mimbu is inspired by the magnificent panorama of the Pacific as much as by the innocent charm of childhood to create poetic images full of gentle magic. The thousands of balloons presented in this image, Rainbow, symbolise joy and encourage the viewer to share it with those who need it.
Coupled with the magnificent and elusive landscapes of the Pacific, she leaves the spectator with the irresistible desire to reconnect with their inner child.

“… like a journey into places that don’t exist. The places of my dreams, desire, imagination and fears.” – Michael Karcz
Poetry and Emotions
Fictional Photography
Far from traditional photographic moments, the images of Alastair Magnaldo describe poetic moments in which emotions and dimensions shift. Through his original work, the author evades the viewer, through worlds in which dreams reign supreme.
