About The Artwork

I took the background images of the sea in Port Alfred, South Africa. The model wore a vintage dress that I borrowed from an antique store in Port Alfred where we were on holiday. The dress has a very interesting history. It was made by nuns in France for a wedding but apparently the bride was left at the altar, so, heartbroken she gave the dress to the shop owner’s daughter and asked that it not be sold as it has this sad history. She was kind enough to lend it to me for the photo shoot I had in mind of girl running in this dress on the beach. I tried to convey the sadness of the dress and the bride. I made a series of the same mood and feel.

My approach to my art: I have had a love for photography for many years but more recently a particular interest in art photography to create unique photos. I had a creative vision to not merely capture a realistic rendition or mere representation of the subject, but aim to produce a more personal, maybe evocative or atmospheric impression with my photos that might go beyond realism. My intention is to create an aesthetic image that might convey something personal, maybe an emotion, while at the same time express something universal. I have a special interest in conceptual photography,  and often take photos to use in composites to create an work of art or symbolism which can be interpreted in many different ways. It of course all starts with an idea and thinking 'out of the box', and as Ansel Adams said 'there is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept' The diverse genres of my photography all have a fine art feel. I also have a special interest in editing with photography and design software and see it as a challenge to study the techniques to create the effect that I would like in my final image.  Hopefully my photos will leave something of myself for my children and their children and make the world richer for it. I started a photography business with the name 'Pia Lux' which is the Latin phrase for 'Loving the Light' and is the essence of the way I see photography and create art photography as I do...
