Glacial Flow

From a small Cessna, high above the raw and unyielding landscapes of Iceland, I witnessed rivers that seemed to pulse with ancient stories. These are not just waterways; they are the veins of the land, carrying glacial melt and volcanic sediment in slow, silent conversation.

About Artist

Michael Jurek

Although I live close to Hanover, Germany, most of my free time Im on the road and sometimes I even travel to the most remote parts of the world. I guess you can say, photography has become a great passion of mine in the last 15 years and now I am totally into it. My work covers a wide range of areas, but I am particularly passionate about abstract and minimalist photography, as well as nature and architecture photography. Being moved by the awe, inspiring and wonderful natural environment, I make a point of capturing the best spots I go to along with the people who, through their unique characteristics, actually take ownership of their hometowns. Then through my Canon camera, I try to capture those moments so that any person who is looking at my photos becomes a travel companion for a moment. I have been lucky to have my photography published in different magazines, and I was shortlisted and nominated in several international photo competition around the globe.
