Gwenael Belanger - Fragmenting the Image
This is a richly illustrated outline of the career of artist/photographer Gwenael Belanger. Gwenael Belanger's artistic practice is marked by an absolute quest for the inherent simplicity of things, with the artist drawing inspiration from the most mundane reality to create his works. Playing with the limits of perception, Belanger uses graphic and photographic processes to exploit the interaction between what we see and what we imagine, or what we recall, in our daily activities. Like an anthropologist of the image, he is interested as much in the media image as in the cultural object, both of which carry and convey connotations, denotations and references.
