Manuel Vason


Italian photographer Manuel Vason says:

‘I live and observe the world as a huge museum with peculiar beauties and oddities’

Vason’s photographs focus on the human form and performance, often appearing as if taken straight from the stage with costumes, make-up and choreography still intact; all poised as if about to take the next step forward.

Vason has a fascination with movement and intricacies of the human body which he twists, distorts, compresses and elongates in various shapely ways. It’s not surprising that Vason’s work have been featured in ID, Dazed and Confused, Whitechapel Gallery and The Tate Magazine amongst others. Once again, a photographer has stolen my heart.
