Leon Prost

FANZINE

A TALENTED AUTODIDACT, LÉON PROST STRIVES TO CATCH WHAT GOES UNSEEN - HIS LENS IS A PRISM THAT MAKES THE INVISIBLE VISIBLE. HIS EYE CAPTURES MOMENTARY ENCOUNTERS, OFTEN UNEXPECTED, AND CONSTRUCTS A HIGHLY SPONTANEOUS DIALOGUE IN THEM.

THROUGH CANDID PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN DURING HOLIDAYS, CHEERFUL MOMENTS AMONG FRIENDS OR INTIMATE SCENES, LÉON PROST PAINTS THE PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG, LIBERATED SOCIETY WITH A RESOLUTE ATTITUDE. HIS PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUE, ALWAYS USING FLASH AND WITHOUT ANY RETOUCHING, PRODUCES A LUMINOUS RESULT WITH SATURATED COLORS, OCCASIONALLY ECHOING THE DOCUMENTARY STYLE OF MARTIN PARR.

AS A FRENCH REPORTAGE PHOTOGRAPHER AND DIRECTOR, LÉON PROST DISCOVERED NEW PERSPECTIVES DURING STAYS IN ROMANIA, WHERE HE CULTIVATED HIS INTEREST IN ENCOUNTERS, WITH HIS ANALOG CAMERA, HE DEVELOPED A PARTICULAR FASCINATION WITH CAPTURING FLEETING MOMENTS IN A GESTURE OR A MOVEMENT. FOR SAINT LAURENT RIVE DROITE, ANTHONY VACCARELLO HAS CURATED A DELICATE SELECTION OF PHOTOGRAPHS GIVING FREE REIN TO REVERIE AND INSOUCIANCE.
