PHOTOGRAPHY
Digital Prints, Limited edition
In a Canadian forest I obtain nocturnal images of animals.
Guided by a ranger, I set up camera traps in the forest to get images of bears, deer and wolves.
I wanted to interact in the animal’s territory where humans do not live.
Back in my studio, I’m using these black and white photos as a basis to my artwork.
My process involves several stages using acrylic painting and photographic transfer. I apply special effects such as smoke and shadows during a photographic cession in my studio.
The fog that I create on my photographs veils the animal and broadens the sense that it’s a captured image from a parallel life.
