Juliette
Bates is a French photographer born in 1983. She still currently lives and
works in Paris France. The above pictures are from her series Histoires
Naturelles made in 2011 and
is loved for its symbolic compositions.
When trying
to research more about Bates, I found very little. Either my research skills
are slacking or she is very reserved as if to remain secluded. Much like
herself, her work has a sense of compelling mystery and dominant repetition of color
themes. She also works with birds, insects and skulls as well, which are
typically the only color she has in these pictures. I love the use of lighting
and the repetition of the velvet texture as well. I’m very intrigued with this project;
I love the darkness and the mystery. This is something I want to try and
experiment with.
