"Write poetry with light and shadow"

The photography works are from Laurent Castellani, an artistic portrait photographer in Nantes, France. Laurent is not only a photographer, but also an excellent producer and director. Minimalism and romanticism are the keynote of her photography style-delicate perspective combined with soft tones brings a very poetic French style.

"An excellent portrait, the most important thing is to capture emotions, followed by integration with the environment." She is very sensitive to micro-emotions, and can quickly capture some subtle emotional changes, and add appropriate light and shadow and images to these emotions and interpret them with a lens.

Although the picture just froze for an instant, we seem to be able to perceive everything that is dynamic:

The sea beat against the rocks, splashing waves and rippling fine water;

The trembling of budding branches, the water waves aroused by the wind, the green branches;

The evening breeze blows flowers and plants, and the quiet and bright sunset shines;

The flowers in full bloom in the greenhouse and the mottled swaying of light and shadow in midsummer;

Laurent shows an elegant life in nature, and it is also poetic in the nuances of life.

This kind of beauty is more inclined to the integration of subjective feelings, that is, "synaesthesia."

"Synaesthesia"

Synaesthesia, also known as "telepathy", means that when describing objective things, people's senses such as hearing, sight, smell, taste and touch communicate with each other, making the image more vivid and vivid, thus forming a richer and more complete understanding of things.

Synaesthesia is actually an art of association.

From vision to perception, this is a substitute for feeling.

The appeal and influence of the work. This sensory experience from vision to other senses is a manifestation of synaesthesia in visual art. Similarly, a good photo can make the viewer's senses break through the limitations of vision at any time and transform them into touch, hearing, taste, smell and intention.

Burke, a famous British philosopher and aesthetician, said, "Feeling is our gateway to aesthetic experience." Feeling, that is, the physiological feeling including sight, touch, hearing, taste and smell, as well as the feeling of mind.

The application of visual arts synaesthesia such as vision, touch, hearing, taste, smell and intention to photography and graphic creation can break through some bottlenecks, get out of the dilemma of aesthetic numbness, mobilize more senses to cooperate with each other to open up more creative resources, and conduct multi-angle perception, which can expand the performance space, give the object humanistic stories and emotions, and excellent creation will be born.

"The synaesthesia of photography is the way that the photographer applies the senses of vision, hearing, smell, touch, taste and intentionality to the object of expression, and moves the most valuable' other' elements into the cognition and expression of visual senses."

"Any performance object has many aesthetic attributes. This multidirectional nature requires us to experience, capture, discover and express with various senses. Among the various attributes of the performance object, there must be a feature that best reflects the basic attributes and aesthetic value. This feature is its feature. "

-Suo Jiulin, consultant of China Photographers Association and a famous photography theorist.

"artistic sense"

The so-called art means that great artists constantly break through the old ways of expression and express their ideas in new ways. This is the art. After the invention of photography technology, the way of pursuing truth by relying on "form" came to an end, guiding people to explore forms of expression other than "form", which is also the source of the rise of Impressionism.

A work of art is composed of some abstract visual beauty. The master of art does not violate the natural form, but also strives for a high degree of simplification and dares to boldly deal with lines, colors, shapes and textures. Art is to absorb these most essential visual beauty points and make them in a key position, and eliminate those elements that hinder the central idea or make it in a secondary position.

Strong sensory ability is often helpful to explore the external image and internal quality of the target. When dealing with the external image, the creator can find the characteristics, beauty and interest that ordinary people can't find in the modeling of the subject. For internal quality, it is intended to explore and portray those hidden and unknown inner feelings, and is not limited to clearly reproducing the image of the object.

In a sense, photography is to write poems with light and shadow.
