Exploring strong contrasts, where the absence of color shifts the focus to line, form, texture, and
composition, makes every stroke and detail more pronounced, giving the expression a powerful
emotional and symbolic dimension. Black can represent weight, depth, and mystery, while white
symbolizes light, space, and silence. The black-and-white palette frees the landscape from realistic
depiction and transforms it into a universal space for imagination and personal experience of nature.
This very opposition creates a dramatic visual effect and opens up space for diverse interpretations,
making black-and-white art timeless and universal.
