Artist Analysis

Raymond Depardon; street photographer
from what i have researched he mainly produces black and white photos using a range of shadows some bold others light i like this type of phography because the viewer decides what type of mood the photo represents because with no direct colour a mood isnt instantly set. aswell as this i like the way he uses humour and relaxasion in some and dark and scary in others and also a mixture of weird and typial photography. His pieces are realy detailed and have a lot going on in them usualy and usues harizons and architexture to produce sunsets and deeper shades.

in photos with such details colour often distracts the viewer from the point the photographers trying to get across in this photo in particuler you focus on the parts that you are intrested in and find thing out about the piece which in some cases hides those things and this makes his work unique and intresting.

I dont really understand this photograph much it dosnt give any direct feel to it and takes several seconds to look at it enough to realise whats going on and although its a quite empty frame it still interest me for reason i am unsure about it leaves the viewer to make up their mind even when not looking at the piece
