Corey Arnold, Photographer, Portland

Description

This striking photographic work by Corey Arnold captures a commercial fishing scene from the perspective of a small boat bow. A lone fisherman clad in bright orange and dark waterproof gear kneels on the metal deck, holding a gaff hook while facing rough open waters. The foreground is filled with a dense catch of silver fish piled inside the hull. Above, heavy, turbulent storm clouds dominate the overcast sky, creating a dramatic and moody atmosphere. The wide composition emphasizes the isolation and raw reality of commercial fishing on the open water.
