Bryan Adams: Untitled

During the first weeks of 2015, photographer and musician Bryan Adams (born 1959) visited the island of Mustique in the West Indies, one of that particular breed of island destinations known for its turquoise water, unspoiled sand, lush vegetation and illustrious guests. On one of the beaches, Adams noticed that the rising and receding waves of the Caribbean Sea had formed abstract patterns in the sand. Adams photographed many of these abstract formations in black and white, drawing out the resemblance between the night sky and the patterns in the sand.
Adams--already well known as a singer, songwriter and producer--first became interested in photography more than 20 years ago, creating his own album covers. Over the next two decades, he quietly established himself as a working photographer, with images appearing in Harper’s Bazaar, Esquire, Interview magazine and i-D. Luxuriously produced and exquisitely printed, this large-format volume shows Adams’ vision of the sea, in all its unstoppable force and incredible beauty.
