Jean-Guy Caumeil, photographer, still living, from Saint-Étienne, France. Founder of Studio du Trident.
The artist has developed a style he describes as minimalist: little or no set dressing or props; what matters is capturing an emotion in the model’s pose or gaze. He seeks to strip the scene back so that the sign (punctum) can be perceived and guide the viewer toward the meaning they themselves will give the photograph. Photography is not a story or a predetermined meaning presented for the viewer to see. Photography tells no story, campaigns for no cause, conveys no message, and imposes no point of view. Photography is a gift that allows the viewer to tell their own story, campaign for a cause, and read their own message.
The use of light is of crucial importance to him, as is the rapport he builds with the model.
