The "Lightwaves" project is a medium format photographic exploration by Michele Bygodt, centered around the artist's fascination with water reflections.

Through the use of large projected patterns, the project aims to distill light to its simplest form, revealing its organic and almost body tissue-like qualities. Michele describes this experience as akin to being immersed in the womb, a place where life begins. Lightwaves seeks to capture the captivating interplay of light and water, unveiling a profound connection between nature, light, and the origins of life.
