Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Injury and recovery inspired G. Elliott Simpson to create the work he always desired, leading him to appreciate the time he has left. While he respects photographers focused on capturing 'truth' or 'documenting,' he is drawn to artifice. “Transformation” marks the debut monograph of this Toronto-based artist, showcasing innovative fetish photography. Simpson's realm is filled with rubber, latex, light, shadow, and reflections, inviting viewers into an unfamiliar space rich with pleasure, lust, and desire. As playwright and director Brad Fraser notes, Simpson's process resembles that of a filmmaker. The initial photographs serve as a foundation for a lengthy, meticulous journey where backgrounds are painted, and figures are retouched and transformed. The final prints differ significantly from the original proofs, akin to the distinction between storyboards and a completed film. The artifice, originating from costumes and props, evolves into a compelling naturalism that reflects the artist's vision. Upon closer inspection, Simpson's work reveals layers of complexity and discomfort, prompting inquiries that extend beyond surface-level interpretations. This depth solidifies G. Elliott Simpson's status as a significant figure in contemporary fetish photography.
