Jean-Guy Caumeil, photographer, still living, from Saint-Etienne, France. Creator of Studio du Trident.
The author develops a style he describes as minimalist; little or no set or accessories, the essence is in capturing an emotion in the model’s posture or gaze.
He seeks to depower the scene so that the sign (punctum) is perceived and guides the viewer toward the meaning the viewer will assign to the photo.
The photograph is not a story or a predefined meaning to be seen.
The photograph does not tell a story, does not advocate, does not deliver a message, does not impose a point of view.
The photograph is a gift that allows the viewer to tell their own story, to advocate, and to read their message.
The handling of light is crucial for him as is the rapport with the model.
In this minimalist vein, since 2015 he has begun a long-running, non-exclusive collaboration with a single model.
