Jean-Guy Caumeil, photographer, still alive, from Saint Etienne, France. Creator of the Trident studio.
The author develops a style he describes as minimalist; little or no decor or accessories, the essential is in capturing an emotion through the posture or gaze of the model. He seeks to simplify the scene so that the sign (punctum) is perceived and guides the viewer toward the meaning they themselves will assign to the photo. Photography is not a pre-existing story or meaning to be seen. It tells nothing, advocates nothing, delivers no message, and imposes no point of view. Photography is a gift that allows the viewer to tell their story, to advocate, and to read their message.
The work of light is crucial for him as well as the rapport with the model. In this minimalist vein, he began in 2015 a long-term, non-exclusive collaboration with a single model.
