MOVEMENTS
BY GEOFF LOWE
MOVEMENTS is an outdoor exhibitions about how sports hold a universal beauty, a language that requires no translation. Each jump, dive, or spin transcends culture and speaks to something deeply human—strength, grace, resilience, and joy. Sport witness a harmony of mind and body that captivates and inspires, drawing people together across continents. Sport has the unique power to unite the world, dissolving borders and celebrating our shared humanity. Fans and athletes from diverse backgrounds come together, cheering, competing, and connecting over a common love, building a community where differences fade, and the passion for movement and achievement takes center stage.
GEOFF LOWE AND HIS PICTURES
Through the composition of space and the movements of athletes, offers a surreal vision rarely seen in the olympics. In every image Lowe captures unique moments, transforming ordinary sports scenes into visual works of art that transport us to another world where gravity and logic seem to hold no place. The colours, movements and facial expressions of the athletes in the photos invite you to look beneath the surface, discovering the beauty in every detail. These photos not only document athletic competition, but also celebrate creativity and innovation in sports photography.
THE OUTDOOR EXHIBITION
The outdoor version contains in total 24-32 pictures with light to set up in a public space. Every picture Is well curated to fit into the theme and message we want to communicate according to the what sport brings to the world. As an option we have a pod where there is films to show connected to the show.
The layout of the stands is designed to support the visual impact of the images. The focus is on the images themselves, but they are accompanied by concise, easy-to-read text that clearly communicates what is being displayed. We aim to position this text in the lower area of the screens, where it integrates seamlessly with the images. Each caption is carefully styled with a specific typeface and formatting that enhances readability without detracting from the visuals.
THE CONTENT OF THE TEXT
Each screen includes text that enhances what you see, providing context and meaning beyond the image itself. We prioritize sharing knowledge in our exhibitions because it’s essential to engage meaningfully, especially within public spaces. Here’s how we would express ourselves if we were to present images of show jumping:
Example text:
SHOWJUMPING
Show jumping became an Olympic sport in 1900 at the Summer Olympics in Paris, marking the first time equestrian sports were introduced to the Olympic Games. Equestrian sports then disappeared from the Olympics but returned in 1912 in Stockholm, where show jumping, dressage, and eventing became official and recurring Olympic events.
A total of 75 riders participated in show jumping at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Out of these, 30 riders qualified for the individual final. In the final, 20 clear rounds were recorded, meaning 10 riders incurred penalties at the obstacles.
ARTWORKS
The pictures created for this show are available as fine art print.
