Paul Cupido is one of my greatest artistic influences. His photographic practice, which centres around the Japanese philosophy of “Mu” (無) and the search for solace, is intricately sensitive. Through Paul’s affinity for the natural world and sense of impermanence, his photographs reflect the ethereal, transient nature of existence. Each photograph is unique to its artisanal finishing technique, with the organic textures reflecting his subtle messages. I had the chance to speak with Paul during his art-residency in Cadaqués, where he explains the meaning behind his processes.
