Photographer Noemie Goodal (Noemi Goudal) deftly plays with space and mixes natural and artificial landscapes in his works, obtaining truly intriguing photographs.
At first glance at the author's photographs, it seems as if they are pictures of ordinary landscapes. At the same time, upon closer examination, it turns out that at least some of them are the work of human hands. Let's say a waterfall is a flowing white cloth, and a country road turns out to be a large photograph set on the dusty floor of an old house. According to Noemie Goodahl, she explores "the intrusion of human-created elements into organic landscapes, which demonstrates the attitude of society to the world around it and its irresistible thirst for exploration and power."
“I love to combine two images, combining large backgrounds with interiors. Concerned about environmental problems, I want to suggest in my photographs an escape to alternative spaces, where it becomes possible to recreate new landscapes. In the process of creating these images, almost utopian and filled with a naive desire for restoration, I oscillate between devastation, beauty and nostalgia. - says the author.
Noemie Goodal was born in Paris in 1984 and currently lives and works in London. She has been engaged in photography since her teens and studied professionally in this area of art at St Martin's College, London. Among Noemie Goodal's clients are such publications as Guardian weekend, Telegraph magazine, Sunday Telegraph, Vogue, Creative Review and others.
