A photographer’s trademark often forms in their photography techniques: whether they shoot in black and white, whether their photos are displayed in saturated colour or washed out vintage finishes. Or, they might make particular angles and framings their trademark much like an auteur of film direction does.
Remi Rebillard‘s trademarks show up again in his latest work, a naked portrait of model Delisa. Voyeuristic shots through water-flecked glass add to the air of anonymity in which the body is more a focus than the face – a common theme of Rebillard’s that creates distance between the subject and the viewer.
Another unusual trademark is in how he directs the model: rarely do you find one of Rebillard’s subjects animated or even showing any passion for life. His models are listless, his portraits are of broken souls.
