Description from the seller
This unframed pearl-finish fine art photograph, in a square format of 80 x 80 cm, presents a study in overprinting. The composition is remarkable for its sobriety and its elegance.
A contemporary photographic work exploring the meeting of the sky, the sea and light. Through a play of superimpositions and textures, this composition creates a contemplative atmosphere where the clouds seem to float between reality and abstraction.
The deep shades of blue and the transparency effects give the image a presence that is at once poetic and timeless, inviting the gaze to travel in a horizonless space. This work fits perfectly within the tradition of contemporary artistic photography.

Passionate about photography from a young age, Ben DAUCHEZ began in the neighborhood studios of La Rochelle. There he acquired the full set of fundamentals of classic photography, from technique to shooting and retouching, via the laboratory. At 22, freshly graduated, he moved to Paris to perfect his training by becoming an on-set assistant for the Daguerre studios, Le Petit Oiseau va sortir and Studio Zéro. He had the chance to collaborate with and assist some of the most talented photographers: Bettina RHEIMS, Patrick DEMARCHELIER, Terry RICHARDSON, Ellen VON UNWERTH, Marcus MAM... From certain defining encounters arose beautiful projects and long collaborations, notably with André RAU, Bettina RHEIMS (the sultry exhibition INRI and its eponymous book at Editions Albin Michel) and Peter BEARD (Pirelli calendar 2009 in Botswana).
His photos have been published, among others, by Condé Nast (French and international editions), Première, Wallpaper, ID, Madame Figaro, Lifestyles, Dandy Magazine... His universe also attracts brands with very distinct identities for which he has signed institutional and/or advertising campaigns such as Dior (beauty), L'Oréal, Peugeot, Philip Morris, and Burger King (advertising awarded at the Dubai Lynx).
Ben DAUCHEZ has also produced numerous portraits of celebrities (IGGY POP, Woody HALLEN, Grace JONES, Jean DUJARDIN, Gilles LELLOUCHE, Olivier MARCHAL, Carole BOUQUET, Charlotte GAINSBOURG, ...) of beauty, men of the world (Olivier DASSAULT, Jacques SEGUELA...) and travelers...
This photographic path has since allowed him to capture the human beauty, aesthetics and spirit of each personality, with complete freedom.
