CHOURAQUI

I was born in Provence and am now back in AIX EN PROVENCE where CEZANNE retired. I spent many years from 1985 in Paris shooting fashion, actresses and art nude and fetish. My photography has been described as”Strange Fashion Photography” and is based on light and shadow even in color. .
My familliar pouting pin-ups are either decorated in gorgeous metal body jewellery, rope or both. Transfers from Polaroid to art paper, toning in various colours, material backgrounds with crackled or melted effects, photoshop wizard effects - all these serve to accentuate the moving presence of the solitary faces, emphasizing them softly. I am always looking for new faces, so gothic chic, aristocratic princess, tatoo pin-up, or bald-headed model contact him wherever you are.

Current Residence: AIX EN PROVENCE
