Les arbres noirs - Daniel Castonguay
Part of his work as a "creative street photographer" is to bring this everyday life into a world of fantasy, something related to abstraction. This creates a duality, a paradox, the paradox of ordinary life in a universe that exists only in one's own imagination and that can literally be anything and everyone can relate to it.
For Daniel, photography is a mode of expression just like writing or music. Conveying an emotion is the essence of his photographic work, taking the viewer on a journey. More precisely, to make the viewer travel in a world of reverie, leaving all the space to the imagination.
