Description from the seller
This unframed fine art pearl photography in a square format of 80x80 cm presents a study in overprinting. The composition is remarkable for its sobriety and its elegance.
Contemporary photographic work exploring the meeting between sky, sea, and light. Through a play of superpositions 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 viewer to travel through a horizonless space.
This work fits perfectly within the tradition of contemporary artistic photography.

Passionate about photography from a very young age, Ben DAUCHEZ began in the neighborhood studios of La Rochelle. There he acquired all the foundations of photography from classic technique, to shooting and post-processing, through the laboratory. At 22, freshly graduated, he moved to Paris to perfect his training by becoming a 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 decisive encounters would spring 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 Editions (French and international), Première, WallPaper, ID, Madame Figaro, Lifestyles, Dandy Magazine... His universe also interests brands with very different identifying codes for which he has signed institutional and/or advertising campaigns such as Dior (beauty), L'Oréal, Peugeot, Philip Morris, or Burger King (Advertising awarded at 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, ...) in beauty, men of the world (Olivier DASSAULT, Jacques SEGUELA...) and travelers...
This photographic path has allowed him since then to freely immortalize the human beauty, aesthetics, and spiritual presence of each personality.
