Emma Picq, Photographer, Paris

Description

An artist is seated on a metal chair in a paint-splattered studio, holding a lighter to a cigarette while facing two large, heavily textured abstract canvases covered in expressive marks and pastel washes. The person wears a light green utility coat with text printed on the back over a hoodie and blue jeans, with paint-stained footwear. The interior features white walls and a floor covered in colorful paint splatters, suggesting an active working space. The composition is captured with visible film border markings, including Kodak Portra 400 numbering along the edge, emphasizing an authentic analogue format. Natural light illuminates the studio setting, highlighting the tactile surfaces of both the paintings and the artist's outerwear.
