genres from documentary to fine art Apart from the quite harrowing black and white photo documentary series shot in Bali by Dutch born but Broome WA based Ingetje Tadros the other three artists take us down the well worn path of photographic portraiture with a distinctive personal spin
But what makes a great portrait
Avedon said lsquoall portraits were accurate and none of them were the truth They are all in a sense a postulation or an argument Every-time a photographer points the camera a another person he is making a judgement The grander the judgement the greater the liersquo
Another gem turned up in my search for commentary on what makes a great portrait is this by Olivier Laude lsquoThe myth that the portrait the good ones the bad ones and everything in between are an important and enlightening window into the soul of the sitter is just as much of an insipid clicheacute as the soul itselfrsquo
Jeff Moorfoot BIFB Creative Director BETA editor
Ballarat International Foto Biennale
I have never been a big fan of lsquothemedrsquo calls for entry favoured by so many Festival Directors Curators and Editors To my mind themes do little more than to limit the potential of interesting work to find an audience Themes also encourage a diatribe of art speak as the maker of the work writes in sup- port to link the material to the theme irrespective if the theme had anything to do with the original thoughts or concepts to the work I can understand a call for works on a specific unambigu- ous theme such as lsquosquarersquo lsquoBlack and whitersquo lsquoimages containing three dogsrsquo or lsquopictures of wrought iron balustradesrsquo etc etc but abstract concepts hellip forget it I guess the limiting factor pretty much sums up my opinion on themed anything
There is not a whole lot of alchemy that goes into pulling together each edition of BETA developments in photo- graphy Apart from endeavouring to mirror the philosophy that underpins each Ballarat International Foto Biennale - namely diversity It is very much a case of what crosses my desk at the time of consideration of what might feature in a particular edition that some-times serendipity takes over and I find a link between the selected portfolios
If you are looking for some sort of glue that binds the portfolios in this edition of BETA developments in photography 14 it is that artist folios featured are all figurative works And they span
It would be remiss of me not to acknowledge the sad passing of Ballarat International Foto Biennale Patron Malcolm Fraser AC CH We offer the deepest sympathy from the Board Management and staff here at the BIFB to Mr Fraserrsquos family close friends and colleagues

Caged Humans in Bali

When I walked into that room I did not see a room It was a cage and in that cage was a human being that had been stripped of her wings her voice her humanity
The first feelings that came to me as I entered this room this cage this hold- ing pen was that in the corner was another human - but one who was caged in many ways mentally and physically I knew I had to capture this story because for me my freedom is something I take for granted and I wanted to tell the story of how freedom for some of our fellow human beings is but a dreambut by talking about it and showing it we can move towards helping by bringing the human suffering of these victims of Pasung to the world so that we can collectively do something to help When I asked Kadekrsquos father permission to enter the room where Kadek was being held for over twenty years it felt like stepping into a hellhole
Another person may have called it a room but for me it was a cage there was no windows the roof had large cracks in it through which Kadek if she looked up could see the sky
Kadek was sitting on the ground smeared with her own faeces and I quietly sat next to her in that mess Kadek was watching me while I sat
with her in her own cage
The silence was deafening and yet her story was so loud as told to me by her eyes I believe this spilt second of a moment changed my whole perception as a photographer and human being it hit me like a wall and I felt very clear that this story about Pasung needs to be told
To be a restrained person in onersquos own home is something I had never heard about in all my years of traveling the world However this is what I found when I ventured to Bali this year
I was suddenly thrust into a world that few get to experience and it has left a impression on me that has shaken me to my core as a human being To sit as a free human being with another human being whose freedom has been taken away is the most confronting and heart wrenching experience to be in
What I found cannot be described in words and must be seen to really under- stand the level of depravity and human rights abuse being forced on the lowest group of people in this country - the mentally afflicted Pasung is the physical restraint by way of chains ropes and cages of the Mentally Ill in Indonesia under the care of their families as there
9
is a lack of Governmental support for the full care and rehabilitation of the victims and their family carers It is estimated that there are 18800 people under Pasung today and more are being found
I must also explain that this is not a story about blame of the families who must endure the hardships of caring for their loved ones who are afflicted by a Mental Health condition Through the lens I have tried to capture the individuals who are under Pasung through no fault of their own or their families but due to a larger issue of no funding and resources to combat this growing situation that sees families having to deal with their loved ones in the most trying circumstances and not having the skills to help those with Mental Health but to do the best they can with what they have - which is nothing It can also be said from my experience that even the carers are traumatized by the whole experience of having a loved one restrained in the process of Pasung They can only restrain their loved ones in an effort to stop the self
harm and harm of themselves - the carers
This is a photo documentary about the victims - both the ones in chains in their cages and the ones who look after them I have tried to also capture those that are out of Pasung in an effort to give hope In the six days that I had access to the victims of Pasung in total I photographed twenty one individuals in their homesI was able to see some hope for the victims through the caring work of Professor Luh Ketut Suryani MD PHD of the Suriyani Institute for Mental Health based in BaliSlowly Professor Suryani is finding more victims of Pasung and offering some hope to the families that their family can be given freedom from their debilitating conditions through medical interv- ention and counseling This is a very limited approach due to lack of funding

THE SHADOW SCULPTOR
For a long time William Ropp worked in a darkened studio his models photographed using long exposures his flashlight making forms emerge from the gloom like pale highlights from a painterrsquos brush This act of ritual midwifery caused his subjects to be born from the shadows much as a psychoanalyst leads a patientrsquos mind to give birth to subconscious knowledge In the chiaroscuro images that bear witness to this night and day vanish in the black sunlight of dreams and reminiscence The figures that appear their eyes wide open or wide shut seem both to arise from and be gazing at the ineffable (hellip) Geacuteraldine Schrepfer

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Caged Humans in Bali

When I walked into that room I did not see a room It was a cage and in that cage was a human being that had been stripped of her wings her voice her humanity
The first feelings that came to me as I entered this room this cage this hold- ing pen was that in the corner was another human - but one who was caged in many ways mentally and physically I knew I had to capture this story because for me my freedom is something I take for granted and I wanted to tell the story of how freedom for some of our fellow human beings is but a dreambut by talking about it and showing it we can move towards helping by bringing the human suffering of these victims of Pasung to the world so that we can collectively do something to help When I asked Kadekrsquos father permission to enter the room where Kadek was being held for over twenty years it felt like stepping into a hellhole
Another person may have called it a room but for me it was a cage there was no windows the roof had large cracks in it through which Kadek if she looked up could see the sky
Kadek was sitting on the ground smeared with her own faeces and I quietly sat next to her in that mess Kadek was watching me while I sat
with her in her own cage
The silence was deafening and yet her story was so loud as told to me by her eyes I believe this spilt second of a moment changed my whole perception as a photographer and human being it hit me like a wall and I felt very clear that this story about Pasung needs to be told
To be a restrained person in onersquos own home is something I had never heard about in all my years of traveling the world However this is what I found when I ventured to Bali this year
I was suddenly thrust into a world that few get to experience and it has left a impression on me that has shaken me to my core as a human being To sit as a free human being with another human being whose freedom has been taken away is the most confronting and heart wrenching experience to be in
What I found cannot be described in words and must be seen to really under- stand the level of depravity and human rights abuse being forced on the lowest group of people in this country - the mentally afflicted Pasung is the physical restraint by way of chains ropes and cages of the Mentally Ill in Indonesia under the care of their families as there
9
is a lack of Governmental support for the full care and rehabilitation of the victims and their family carers It is estimated that there are 18800 people under Pasung today and more are being found
I must also explain that this is not a story about blame of the families who must endure the hardships of caring for their loved ones who are afflicted by a Mental Health condition Through the lens I have tried to capture the individuals who are under Pasung through no fault of their own or their families but due to a larger issue of no funding and resources to combat this growing situation that sees families having to deal with their loved ones in the most trying circumstances and not having the skills to help those with Mental Health but to do the best they can with what they have - which is nothing It can also be said from my experience that even the carers are traumatized by the whole experience of having a loved one restrained in the process of Pasung They can only restrain their loved ones in an effort to stop the self
harm and harm of themselves - the carers
This is a photo documentary about the victims - both the ones in chains in their cages and the ones who look after them I have tried to also capture those that are out of Pasung in an effort to give hope In the six days that I had access to the victims of Pasung in total I photographed twenty one individuals in their homesI was able to see some hope for the victims through the caring work of Professor Luh Ketut Suryani MD PHD of the Suriyani Institute for Mental Health based in BaliSlowly Professor Suryani is finding more victims of Pasung and offering some hope to the families that their family can be given freedom from their debilitating conditions through medical interv- ention and counseling This is a very limited approach due to lack of funding

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Caged Humans in Bali

When I walked into that room I did not see a room It was a cage and in that cage was a human being that had been stripped of her wings her voice her humanity
The first feelings that came to me as I entered this room this cage this hold- ing pen was that in the corner was another human - but one who was caged in many ways mentally and physically I knew I had to capture this story because for me my freedom is something I take for granted and I wanted to tell the story of how freedom for some of our fellow human beings is but a dreambut by talking about it and showing it we can move towards helping by bringing the human suffering of these victims of Pasung to the world so that we can collectively do something to help When I asked Kadekrsquos father permission to enter the room where Kadek was being held for over twenty years it felt like stepping into a hellhole
Another person may have called it a room but for me it was a cage there was no windows the roof had large cracks in it through which Kadek if she looked up could see the sky
Kadek was sitting on the ground smeared with her own faeces and I quietly sat next to her in that mess Kadek was watching me while I sat
with her in her own cage
The silence was deafening and yet her story was so loud as told to me by her eyes I believe this spilt second of a moment changed my whole perception as a photographer and human being it hit me like a wall and I felt very clear that this story about Pasung needs to be told
To be a restrained person in onersquos own home is something I had never heard about in all my years of traveling the world However this is what I found when I ventured to Bali this year
I was suddenly thrust into a world that few get to experience and it has left a impression on me that has shaken me to my core as a human being To sit as a free human being with another human being whose freedom has been taken away is the most confronting and heart wrenching experience to be in
What I found cannot be described in words and must be seen to really under- stand the level of depravity and human rights abuse being forced on the lowest group of people in this country - the mentally afflicted Pasung is the physical restraint by way of chains ropes and cages of the Mentally Ill in Indonesia under the care of their families as there
9
is a lack of Governmental support for the full care and rehabilitation of the victims and their family carers It is estimated that there are 18800 people under Pasung today and more are being found
I must also explain that this is not a story about blame of the families who must endure the hardships of caring for their loved ones who are afflicted by a Mental Health condition Through the lens I have tried to capture the individuals who are under Pasung through no fault of their own or their families but due to a larger issue of no funding and resources to combat this growing situation that sees families having to deal with their loved ones in the most trying circumstances and not having the skills to help those with Mental Health but to do the best they can with what they have - which is nothing It can also be said from my experience that even the carers are traumatized by the whole experience of having a loved one restrained in the process of Pasung They can only restrain their loved ones in an effort to stop the self
harm and harm of themselves - the carers
This is a photo documentary about the victims - both the ones in chains in their cages and the ones who look after them I have tried to also capture those that are out of Pasung in an effort to give hope In the six days that I had access to the victims of Pasung in total I photographed twenty one individuals in their homesI was able to see some hope for the victims through the caring work of Professor Luh Ketut Suryani MD PHD of the Suriyani Institute for Mental Health based in BaliSlowly Professor Suryani is finding more victims of Pasung and offering some hope to the families that their family can be given freedom from their debilitating conditions through medical interv- ention and counseling This is a very limited approach due to lack of funding

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

When I walked into that room I did not see a room It was a cage and in that cage was a human being that had been stripped of her wings her voice her humanity
The first feelings that came to me as I entered this room this cage this hold- ing pen was that in the corner was another human - but one who was caged in many ways mentally and physically I knew I had to capture this story because for me my freedom is something I take for granted and I wanted to tell the story of how freedom for some of our fellow human beings is but a dreambut by talking about it and showing it we can move towards helping by bringing the human suffering of these victims of Pasung to the world so that we can collectively do something to help When I asked Kadekrsquos father permission to enter the room where Kadek was being held for over twenty years it felt like stepping into a hellhole
Another person may have called it a room but for me it was a cage there was no windows the roof had large cracks in it through which Kadek if she looked up could see the sky
Kadek was sitting on the ground smeared with her own faeces and I quietly sat next to her in that mess Kadek was watching me while I sat
with her in her own cage
The silence was deafening and yet her story was so loud as told to me by her eyes I believe this spilt second of a moment changed my whole perception as a photographer and human being it hit me like a wall and I felt very clear that this story about Pasung needs to be told
To be a restrained person in onersquos own home is something I had never heard about in all my years of traveling the world However this is what I found when I ventured to Bali this year
I was suddenly thrust into a world that few get to experience and it has left a impression on me that has shaken me to my core as a human being To sit as a free human being with another human being whose freedom has been taken away is the most confronting and heart wrenching experience to be in
What I found cannot be described in words and must be seen to really under- stand the level of depravity and human rights abuse being forced on the lowest group of people in this country - the mentally afflicted Pasung is the physical restraint by way of chains ropes and cages of the Mentally Ill in Indonesia under the care of their families as there
9
is a lack of Governmental support for the full care and rehabilitation of the victims and their family carers It is estimated that there are 18800 people under Pasung today and more are being found
I must also explain that this is not a story about blame of the families who must endure the hardships of caring for their loved ones who are afflicted by a Mental Health condition Through the lens I have tried to capture the individuals who are under Pasung through no fault of their own or their families but due to a larger issue of no funding and resources to combat this growing situation that sees families having to deal with their loved ones in the most trying circumstances and not having the skills to help those with Mental Health but to do the best they can with what they have - which is nothing It can also be said from my experience that even the carers are traumatized by the whole experience of having a loved one restrained in the process of Pasung They can only restrain their loved ones in an effort to stop the self
harm and harm of themselves - the carers
This is a photo documentary about the victims - both the ones in chains in their cages and the ones who look after them I have tried to also capture those that are out of Pasung in an effort to give hope In the six days that I had access to the victims of Pasung in total I photographed twenty one individuals in their homesI was able to see some hope for the victims through the caring work of Professor Luh Ketut Suryani MD PHD of the Suriyani Institute for Mental Health based in BaliSlowly Professor Suryani is finding more victims of Pasung and offering some hope to the families that their family can be given freedom from their debilitating conditions through medical interv- ention and counseling This is a very limited approach due to lack of funding

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

is a lack of Governmental support for the full care and rehabilitation of the victims and their family carers It is estimated that there are 18800 people under Pasung today and more are being found
I must also explain that this is not a story about blame of the families who must endure the hardships of caring for their loved ones who are afflicted by a Mental Health condition Through the lens I have tried to capture the individuals who are under Pasung through no fault of their own or their families but due to a larger issue of no funding and resources to combat this growing situation that sees families having to deal with their loved ones in the most trying circumstances and not having the skills to help those with Mental Health but to do the best they can with what they have - which is nothing It can also be said from my experience that even the carers are traumatized by the whole experience of having a loved one restrained in the process of Pasung They can only restrain their loved ones in an effort to stop the self
harm and harm of themselves - the carers
This is a photo documentary about the victims - both the ones in chains in their cages and the ones who look after them I have tried to also capture those that are out of Pasung in an effort to give hope In the six days that I had access to the victims of Pasung in total I photographed twenty one individuals in their homesI was able to see some hope for the victims through the caring work of Professor Luh Ketut Suryani MD PHD of the Suriyani Institute for Mental Health based in BaliSlowly Professor Suryani is finding more victims of Pasung and offering some hope to the families that their family can be given freedom from their debilitating conditions through medical interv- ention and counseling This is a very limited approach due to lack of funding

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Robert MoranPortraitsRobert Moran lives on a small island just off the eastern coast of Maine in the United States As a full time fine art photographer he shoots land- scapes still life series and portraits Although he enjoys working in several genres his real love is portraiture It is his way of connecting with strangers that he encounters during his travels people that he would otherwise never meet His initial contact usually begins with a conversation (sometimes with an interpreter) to gather information about the person hersquos interested in photographing Robert believes that that initiative allows his subjects to become more comfortable with him and the situation - thus allowing the person to relax and let their guard down - resulting in a more natural pose It also allows him time to think about how hersquos going to approach the shoot His desire to capture a glimpse of a subjectrsquos persona during a fleeting moment in their lives was one of the catalysts for this ongoing series of portraits that began approximately ten years ago His black and white images in this body of work were shot in various locations often using only natural light In order to get the viewer to concen- trate solely on his subjects Robert chooses simple studio-like backgrounds that he creates in post production

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity

Annette FournetAnima Persona
The Anima Persona series by Annette Fournet is based on the expression of the persona (external projection of self) and the anima (inner soul) These digital collage portraits were influenced by Symbolist paintings Unfortunately many of the symbolist artists painted from a misogynist fear of the equality of women with men and of womenrsquos sexuality The elements of the Symbolist work that Annette
Fournet finds of interest are their clear reaction against the mundane the banal and bourgeoisie normalcy of the 19th century Her images express the exotic the spiritual and esoteric qualities of women In each image there is a partially veiled face of a woman The layer of translucent texture can suggest uncovering the individualrsquos inner emot- ions symbolize ageing or can create a sense of the individualrsquos complexity
