Rejecting the typical ‘product’ shot in favour of staging unsettling mise en scene that hint at consumption, sex and desire, Guy Bourdin’s photographs sought to shock and ignite the viewer’s curiosity. Psychodrama and the theatre of the absurd pervade his work; a true master of the storyboard, Bourdin rigorously planned his compositions for fashion shoots. He went to tremendous lengths to produce highly stylised images, often pushing his models to their limits to achieve his desired vision. #objet_d_emotion⁠⠀.⁠⠀.⁠⠀.⁠⠀#valerydemure#jewellery#fashionjewelry#finejewellery#contemporarydesign#jewelry#finejewelry#art#modernart#sculpture#luxury#objetdemotion#handmade#instagood#designerjewellery#fashionjewellery#fineart#jewellerycollector#jewelrycollector#jewel#jewels#artisan#craftsmanship#gold#fashionphotography #guybourdin
