Siamese Fighting Fish Portraits Look Like Colorful Clouds of Ink in Water
- Visarute Angkatavanich reveals Betta Paradiso, a new portrait series of Siamese fighting fish against stark backdrops to showcase their colors.
- Images emphasize flowing fins and tails and compare them to ink clouds or silk, highlighting beauty over aggression.
- The Betta Paradiso portraits are shown in black or white backgrounds to enhance color contrast and detail.
- Angkatavanich’s series has been exhibited in Singapore and is available as a book via Pixniq.
- My Modern Met granted permission to use photos by Visarute Angkatavanich for attribution.
- The Betta Paradiso series reinforces a contrast between the fish’s notorious aggression and its striking aesthetic appeal.
- The collection includes varied color palettes, from pearlescent white to multicolored and fiery red.
- Angkatavanich’s work invites viewers to observe minor details like eyes, gills, and iridescent scales up close.
- The Betta Paradiso images are described as either dancers in water or optical ink clouds.
