MonoVisions Photography Awards - International Black and White Photo Contest

HONORABLE MENTION

TITLE: On Stage

My practice relies mainly on movement, on the fly or choreographed, during shows or experiences, on its forms in photo and video and the three different blurs it prints on a sensor.

I contacted some choreographers to offer them my perspective on their gestures and vocabulary. Here are some dance images, captured during rehearsals or performances that allow me to think and work, with dancers in "place of the shooting device (operator, camera, performer) in a performance".
I say "in" as I would say "from the inside", in opposition to "frontal posture of the public or the photographer when he or she documents".

How can this viewpoint be integrated into the choreography?
Should this viewpoint exist for the viewer or must it be disembodied?
How can energy and movement be felt or experienced in a single shot?

French born Canadian photographer and multimedia director, my work is expressed and printed mainly in Montreal.

My practice relies mainly on movement, whether on the fly or choreographed, during shows, experiences, rehearsals or transportation, on its forms in photo and video and the three different blurs it leaves on a sensor.
