Jean-Guy Caumeil, photographer, still living, from Saint-Étienne, France. Creator of Studio du Trident.
The author develops a style he describes as minimalist; little or no set or accessory, the essential is in capturing an emotion in the model’s posture or gaze. He aims to strip the scene so that the sign (punctum) is perceived and guides the viewer toward the meaning the viewer will impart to the photo. The photograph is not a story or a pre-established meaning to be seen. The photograph tells nothing, does not advocate, does not deliver a message, does not impose a point of view. Photography is a gift that allows the viewer to tell their own story, to advocate, and to read their own message.
The handling of light is crucial for him, as is the complicity with the model. In this minimalist vein, he began in 2015 a deep, permanent but non-exclusive collaboration with a single model.
