Jean-Guy Caumeil, photographer, still living, from Saint-Étienne, France. Creator of Studio du Trident.
The author develops a style he calls minimalist; little or no set or accessories, the essential is in capturing an emotion in the model’s posture or gaze. He seeks to strip the scene so that the sign (punctum) is perceived and guides the viewer toward the meaning the viewer will give to the photo. The photograph is not a story or a predetermined meaning to be shown. 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 message.
The handling of light is central to him, as is the complicity with the model. In this minimalist vein, in 2015 he began a long-standing, non-exclusive collaboration with a single model.
