Beyond the Square
Black & White Photography
29 October to 4 November 2020
In a world inundated with instant images, this local artist is keeping photography real and old-school through film and darkroom processing. The evocative, elegant and nostalgic quality of this collection are reminiscent of photography giants like Ansel Adams and Herb Ritts. Dominique has chosen to present all the photographs in a square format, inspired by his love of the famous Hasselblad camera, which shoots 6×6 square film. Hence the title “Beyond the Square”, a format that focuses the eye intensely on the subject without peripheral distraction. Dom’s works include portraits, architecture, nudes, and landscapes from his travels around the world. elegantlele
