Birds

  • Dalí's Flamingo In the tranquil waters of the Camargue, flamingos stand as surreal testaments to the melding of dreams and reality. The soft pinks of their feathers dissolve into the reflective surface, creating a fluid dance of colors and forms that defy the ordinary bounds of nature. This double exposure, with its intentional blurring and blending, invites viewers to question the limits of perception, beckoning them into a world where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. In creating this image, I aimed to capture more than just the elegance of the flamingo. The reflection merges with the bird, creating a scene that feels both familiar and otherworldly. This moment is part of my broader journey in the Camargue, where the serene and the surreal often meet. "Dalí's Flamingo" embodies the essence of this place, transforming a simple reflection into a captivating visual echo of Salvador Dalí's influence. by Marshall Foster

  • Night-Mare ventures into the shadowed recesses of equine dreams, where the familiar figures of strength and dominance warp into symbols of dread. This double exposure welds two unsettling visions: a bull’s head and horns starkly framing the composition, and an inverted reflection that gives the bull elongated, spectral legs, reminiscent of Dalí’s surreal elongations. This artwork mirrors a horse's nightmarish vision where its usual companion in the marshlands—the bull—transforms into an imposing specter. The horns that ordinarily signify strength now create a prison, encapsulating the bull in an eerie tableau that suggests both confinement and menace. This scene is not just a blend of images but a fusion of fear and fascination, a portrayal of the horse's subconscious grappling with the roles of predator and prey reversed. In "Night-Mare," the dream-like disorientation invites the viewer to navigate a landscape where beauty intertwines with intimidation, reflecting a surreal and distorted reality. This piece underscores the tension between the horse's respect for its counterpart’s power and its latent fears, offering a glimpse into the primal emotions that even domesticated animals might not escape in their darkest dreams. This creation is part of "Reflections of the Camargue," where each piece aims to evoke the profound and often hidden emotional landscapes that dwell within the serene exteriors of Camargue’s wildlife. Here, art becomes a medium through which we explore the darker, unspoken narratives that ripple beneath the surface of the natural world. by Marshall Foster

  • Spirits of the Camargue In "Spirits of the Camargue," the essence of the region comes alive through a haunting double exposure. Here, the figures of the Gardian, the bull, and the horse are layered together, creating a spectral representation of the Camargue’s soul. The interplay of light and shadow, combined with the melding of these iconic elements, evokes a timeless connection to the land and its history. This image is a testament to the Camargue's enduring spirit. The Gardians, with their unwavering dedication, the powerful bulls, and the majestic horses, all blend into a single vision that speaks to the heart of this land. Creating this piece was an exploration of how these elements interact, both in reality and in the layered narrative of my work. It's a reflection of the Camargue's past and present, captured in a moment that invites viewers to explore its deep, multifaceted beauty. by Marshall Foster
