Pascale Peyret, photographer as well as visual artist, utilizes the ‘camera obscura’ for her photographic set-ups. She is moved by memory charged objects and is actively involved in the process of capturing mother nature through the world of growing plants.
She collects and recycles inert objects, attentively and precisely assembling them to create installations, then photographs the end result with her pinhole camera. The viewer is launched in a dreamlike vision with a poetic play on spatial dimensions. She completes her photographic display by creating living vegetable sculptures and a video capturing the transition through time.
Her photographs have been presented in numerous international exhibitions: the Dong Gang International Photo Festival in Korea, the Guangzhou Photo Biennial, Paris Photo for BMW, International Vilnius Art Photography Festival. Pascale Peyret’s photographs have also been published in le monde2, Images Magazine,Inspirations Book 2009, Technikart Japan. Her She received a few awards, e.g. 3rd place in the International Photography Award competition 2008.
