Mondes sensibles
Photographic works & mixed media by Emma Daum. Originals, numbered and signed.
Many sources of inspiration, with, as a common thread, the notion of the infinite and the infinitely small, of time and eternity. The human being is in osmosis, and in search of osmosis, with the surrounding world. In contemplation too.
Solitude is everywhere. A solitude sought, not imposed, that also speaks of freedom. Water and plants are never far, even in the city.
From a single photograph, a new encounter is born. Most photographs play with blur and light, heightening the sense of the unreal.
All the people and situations are real. They were truly there, with no collage and no drone, even if appearances can be deceiving.

AboutThe series
Biarritz, Hanoi, Nha Trang.
Méditation avec l’horizon
This woman was sitting there, in a meditative pose, facing the sea, the waves and the horizon. Like an invitation to calm and contemplation.
Black and white photograph, white satin pigments applied by touches. Original work, numbered and signed, with certificate of authenticity.
L’été, main sur les hanches
Seen from behind, she seems to be waiting or keeping watch, in a calm, assured stance. On the Grande Plage, in Biarritz.
Fine art photograph, colour print on fine art paper. Original work, numbered and signed, with certificate of authenticity.
Between image and matter
Some photographs are reworked from different angles, lights and textures. Acrylic pigments, matte or glossy, applied by hand, play with reality and create relief.
