entry description
Through portraiture I seek ways to tell stories and express emotions that are buried deeply in my heart. I see portraits as impressions and concepts that involve not only sheer beauty, but also a wide range of emotions. To me, a subject is not only a living person, but also a container or a medium I blend myself in. Like the sign of Gemini, there are always two sides: the subject and me in the subject.about the photographer
Suxing Zhang is a Chinese fine-art photographer currently living in Australia. His works focus on fine-art and conceptual portraits which can be described as impressionistic realism. He sees photographs as impressions that involve not only sheer beauty but also a wide range of emotions, and facial expressions and postures as the best mediums to deal with complex concepts. His photographs often involve visual metaphors and metonymies to tell stories and express emotions. Experience with painting as well as charcoal sketching has attributed greatly in his use of lighting, composition, colour, texture, and translates to the overall harmony of his visual layouts.back to gallery
