1.a period or state of inactivity or equilibrium.
"long periods of stasis"
2. a stoppage of flow of a body fluid.
The term Stasis refers to a moment of stillness in the passage of time. Beauty, tension and introspection are all found within stillness. While the balance of stillness is the foundation for all conscious action, nature's actions derive from a chaotic yet powerful driving force. By merging stillness and chaos we end up in a form of visual meditation.
This project explores the convergence of these opposing forces, finding harmony in their interaction. Through form, texture, and composition, Stasis becomes a meditation on balance-a space where the quiet and the wild coexist, revealing the rhythm hidden within stillness and the structure within chaos.
Μike Ioannidis's body of work explores the relationship between humans and nature through a minimalist, timeless, and surrealistic photographic style that incorporates elements of multiple experimental techniques.
