Harmony of Colours and Patterns

Joseph Nada: I am a Barcelona-based producer, vocalist and visual artist, known for my work with some of the most iconic names in Spain’s experimental urban scene, including Tremendo and Elphomega. While this is my debut as an instrumental solo artist, I also bring a solid background as a composer and creative.

Kateřina: My name is Kateřina Malečová Suková and I live in the Czech Republic. I am interested in alternative photographic processes, with an emphasis on sustainability through eco-friendly practices. Recently, I have been focusing on the creation of lumen prints and their possibilities. My work is mainly inspired by nature.

Kateřina: For this particular project, Joseph Nada´s music was a source of inspiration for me. I must admit that at first I didn´t know what I wanted to photograph. But I knew that images should tell a story and form a harmonious whole. For the first prints I used hail-damaged leaves. I liked the colourful results, so I continued to do that. The colours and patterns really seemed to fit the music I was capturing. 

In this series of lumen prints I used plant materials and negatives. Lumen printing is a variation of the photogram technique. The images are created by exposing the photographic paper to sunlight. The patterns are created by the interaction of the sun with the paper and the objects placed on it. The series depicts ghostly silhouettes and fragments of ordinary human moments. The set of images was created completely intuitively. The patterns on the leaves seem to have their own rhythm, and even in that I see a connection with music.

Joseph Nada: My EP “We Need to Go Deeper” is a journey through cinematic tension, atmospheric beats, and deep basslines that evoke a sense of zero gravity. The music blends elements from wave, downtempo, and phonk, always with the intention of creating an emotional and immersive experience. Each track title draws from iconic sci-fi film quotes, paying tribute to that universe and reinforcing the EP’s futuristic and introspective tone.

Kateřina: I want the images to make people think about what they are actually looking at. Sometimes it is necessary to decipher what is actually in the photos. Photography has become my favourite way to understand the world.
