"Vivienne"

" Vivienne ", the project that I am creating is a part of a larger series
of photographs. For years I have been exploring a well known and
common subject in photography: the nude. Those photographs are an
attempt to unify two forms of media and create an aesthetic of my
own that arises from this union, by bridging the gap and establishing a
link between the two different, but very similar forms. I extract and
combine elements from two technically opposed approaches to create
representation of reality, dreams and unconscious. The worlds of
traditional silver based media and digital media have always been in
conflict, but I feel that they should depend on each other. These forms
need each other's imperfection, the combination of the two, results in
images that achieve more than either could do one their own.
