Gilles Lorin (1973 Aix-en-Provence)

Factsheet about the artist

Serenity. The latest photographs by the French artist Gilles Lorin from his series "Portraits of Dao" radiate infinite peace and tranquility. A lonely tree. A mountain landscape. The full moon. Almost a blessing in our fast-moving times.

Gilles' photographs are not loud and colorful, they do not shock, rather present themselves discreetly and with timeless elegance.

His signature is his printing technique. Gilles neither documents nor travels around the world in search of the best snapshot. His photographs are not meant to be contemporary documents. Instead Gilles creates painterly complete works of art. He arranges, composes, plays with light and leaves nothing to chance before he captures a sketch with the camera. The real work follows in the darkroom where he experiments with chemicals, papers and techniques until he has found the desired way to depict his motif. This process results in impressively beautiful prints of outstanding quality.
