In the rush of the day-to-day the innate beauty of life is so often lost to the demands of the moment. The perfect joy of the body stretching as it wakes up is shattered by the unassailable screeching of the alarm pushing us into our day. The rustling of the wind through the trees as we leave our home is completely forgotten as we focus instead on the never-ending tasks ahead of us. Even the beauty of our struggle with life is eclipsed by the challenges yet to be faced on the horizon. These vital yet lost moments are the inspiration for the work of Alfred Paredes – the beauty of the human form, the profound power of nature and the joy of existence.
