Laura Vesmare

Laura Vesmare is a still life photographer, based in Paris. From an Italian mother and a Franco-Polish father, she grew up in Gabon. Her multi-cultural background gave her a certain openness, where she feels it important to play with inanimate objects and to play with colours, textures, geometric shapes in order to create creative images, which encourage reflection.

Here in her series of images she wanted to play with textures such as water or tracing paper that corresponds perfectly to the theme for her of slight. Making elements come to the surface or touch a surface was an obvious way for her to explore.

She says “let your imagination run free in order to guess what is hidden under a tracing paper surface”.

“As like we had played in childhood, I use a magnifying glass to focus sunlight. I’m fascinated by this visual effect which reminds me of the Universe, time and reincarnation. I believe there is a link between them, and I’m trying to find it out by this series. Sun rays goes through symmetric surfaces of a convex lens, the concentrated light is converted to heat. Just like our life course, by learning knowledge, receiving information, and experiencing everything in life, we make ourselves burn to shine”.
