‘Aquática’ was an exhibition showcasing 16 underwater photographs by visually impaired photographer Marcelo Bilevich. The exhibition, which ran from June 2 to September 16, 2017, explored the intersection of visual impairment, digital photography, and aquatic sports.
The exhibition ‘Aquática’ presented a collection of 16 photographs taken underwater by Marcelo Bilevich, an artist with a visual impairment. Bilevich, who found digital cameras transformative for his analog photography work, draws inspiration from his passion for water sports to create these unique images. The exhibition, held from June 2 to September 16, 2017, highlighted how visual impairment does not preclude artistic expression in photography. Among the featured works were 'Infinito azul,' capturing his first underwater session with fellow photographer Paz Sierra; 'Reflejo del alma,' a portrait of artist Ana Oka; and 'Calas de Menorca,' a black and white image utilizing light effects. Other pieces like 'Danzando con tortugas' featured freediver Santiago Jakas, 'Radazul' showed freediver Pepe Arcos in Tenerife, 'Bailando bajo el agua' presented ballerina Beatriz López, and 'Con el sol en mi espalda' featured National Dance Company dancer Kayoko Everhart. Bilevich's background in advertising and his work with assistive technologies at ONCE further inform his artistic approach.
