In a another companion piece, Gaia Diptych #117 presents to us a realistic portrait of tranquility.

The soft fluffy clouds in the clear sky above look down carefully on the gentle sea below, as its waves hug the shoreline in rhythm with the breath.

The series Gaia takes its names from the hypothesis by James Lovelock and Lynn Margulis, which describes Earth as a single superorganism in which living beings and the rest of the planet establish a self-regulating equilibrium that ensures the survival of the whole.

In this series of diptychs, Llorens creates a duality of meaning by juxtaposing two photographs of natural elements found in Llorens' own natural habitat. These two individual images combine to make a third, holistic, harmonious whole, which differs from the simple sum of its parts, as described by Ralph Gibson in 'Overtones and Proportions'.
