The Dreamlike Montage Photographs of Suzanne Moxhay, are like Surreal Stage Sets
“Moxhay has made work by building miniature “flats”, similar to early film sets, which are then incorporated as layers through various processes of digital manipulation. The resulting photos blend illusory and real space, leaving the viewer uncertain about scale or depth, which she says “appear to hover between the miniature and the epic”
Moxhay produces unsettling photographic
work that occupies a middle ground between the staged picture, the
tableau vivant, the dream like unreality of a film still and the hyper
reality of reportage. This tension between a highly controlled artistic
process and an end result that leaves the viewer with a narrative urge
to understand and interpret the image they are confronted with is a
trait shared with much contemporary art photography. H/T Aesthetica Magazine
