 Profile
Patrick de Warren was born in Avignon and somehow didn't hold a camera .....Take his first picture until he was 25 years old,
He became a photographer, working and learning with Models to associates them later on in his universe of art while using Fashion models to create his images, He's work is internationally exhibited and he created portraits of christina ricci, jamie lee curtis, chloe sevigny , zac posen among others. His work is about light expressing a reverence for the first photographic pioneers—all about using the sun, candles feel light to the latest lighting gear, mixtures of the manufactured and the natural, to make beauty.
There is a solmnity to his work that honors the subject—whether a
model or a star in her apartment, as if through the somber, almost
reportorial recording of the fleeting moment of the light, the human is an
extention of the light rather than an object upon which the light plays.
His landscapes offer the quietest sense of revelation—the melancholy peace
of a blue dawn, light drained from the landscape and held with awe in
frigid waters.
His works contain a sense of drama without being staged or over-retouched. Light
is his palette and his portraits have a painterly quality that1s hard to
pinpoint. His portrait of Susan Sarandon, for example—elegant, girlish,
innocent and hidden, she is nearly swallowed by the darkness of the room yet
is illumianted by the fresh light falling through the window where she sits
like a kid on the sill. Models shot in a marsh become renaissance figures,
the light soft and flat, diffuse, preserving the secrecy and nobility of
each subject. He is markedly not confrontational or probing—alowing a piece
of the heart to sly peek through. He catches the inner elegance of each
person, the gestural sense of an ongoing life through a face,
