Jose Javier Serrano's Blur

I came across Jose Javier Serrano's work today over at the always inspiring This Is That. I typically try to avoid describing someone's work by referencing another's; however, Serrano's images almost immediately struck me as a synthesis between Harry Callahan's Eleanor portraits and Richard Misrach's On The Beach images. Ultimately, the Spanish photographer's sensitivity to light, color and design ignites a satisfying uncanniness in the images.

I would definitely recommend taking a few minutes to check out some of Serrano's other projects. Be warned though, there's 36 of them.
