Mathilde Karrèr Photography

Mathilde Karrèr loves accessories, color, and flowers to create lavish yet subtle compositions with a captivating narrative. Half-way between paintings and movie stills, her photographs are elaborate, visually-rich micro worlds with knowingly chosen details.

Her lighting expertise and the wish to make every image premium, texturised and rich, this is what makes her photography stand out. Many of her works, she develops and styles herself, you can call it a very hands-on way of working.

“The art of painting, in many styles, have subconsciously, a big influence in my work.
Also late 20th century movies, the production and set design, I find very inspiring. I like to approach a project as a director, set designer and problem solver in one.
Certain themes will always re-emerge in my work, a strong connection to the classical still life off course, however I like to experiment, try new things, push my own reference framework”

July 17, 2020 by Arseny Vesnin in 2020, Digital Art, Photography, Portfolios, Spain, United Kingdom

Madrid-based art director Miguel Marques and photographer Pascal Schonlau from London created a series of visual artworks under the theme SKIN DEEP. It's a visual essay that addresses how human bodies merge to other digital mediums, addressing 2D photography with 3D illustrations in this collaboration.

SKIN DEEP

The ability to recognise finest nuances and deviations when observing the appearance of a person is often tested by the abundance of purely digitally created bodies in cinema, print and online. Utilising a combination of photography and 3D elements we created a series of images that show a progression from the original human shape towards an abstracted virtual representation.

Slava Semenuta known as Thisset shares his latest work Contemplate and the words about it:

“This video tells a simple story of any thinking person who is looking for meaning of existence.
A person who is both suffering and enjoying life.
I showed this story in a peculiar way and with my own vision of the world.

In this short music film, there is a share of madness and surrealism.
I wrote an abstract script and was the director of this video and I also drew fonts to decorate the video.
The font is designed in a style that imitates plants and smoke to enhance the surrealistic atmosphere.”

Architectural Photography by Griselda Duch

May 13, 2020 by Arseny Vesnin in 2020, Architecture, Photography, Netherlands

Griselda Duch is a photographer specializing in landscape, still life, and architectural photography. She likes to travel around while working for both personal and commissioned projects.

“Being unique among creative and artistic professions, I think architecture is very important. Beyond merely providing shelter, architecture becomes the stage set and context for our lives, and an important influence on our living. Playing between line, shape, and color; the series aims to transport the viewer into a setting. Being drawn to the places we all inhabit and that become frames full of unusual details and combinations, I seek to reveal the role of architecture to endless possibilities, looking for aesthetic sensations where symmetry, light, color, and textures become the main protagonists.”
