Mention Honorable Monovisions Photography Awards 2022 :
TITLE: Street scene in Rome
A fun way to get around Rome
This passer-by seemed suspended in this strong light and on this white brick background. Suspended movement. Time suspended. As if he was not moving forward. Impertubable expectation of movement.
AUTHOR: Clement Descubes (France)
French photographer, the camera has been with me for a long time.
I have a preference for the black and white silver gelatin medium, for its aesthetic, plastic qualities and for the entire process of creation and development / prints that accompanies it.
I am particularly interested in architecture and its relationship with the street, people, and the influences it can have on our lives. I like to capture extracts from architectural pieces for what they express, symbolize and represent by themselves.
I also produce reportages and portraits to order, a way of meeting places and people that I find there too in their architectural environment. Often they no longer realize the places around them and it is an interesting dialogue to mix these people with their environment
