About Artist

David Degelin

David is working as a professional photographer with a clear focus on portrait, fashion, street, and fine art photography. Photography is David's way of dealing with the world, people, stories, places, and experiences. essentially it is a therapeutic activity that helps him to survive in a complex world, that is hard to comprehend. Moments of wonder and understanding are what sustains him in dealing with daily life. Graduated with a Master in Archaeology, and having followed the post-graduate program of social and cultural anthropology, people play a crucial role in David's work. In his street and fine artwork, David's own relentless struggle and exploration of boundaries, limitations, doubts, obligations, alienation and solitude plays a key role. The concept of 'beauty of solitude' runs like a thread through his oeuvre as well as his exploration of diversity in the manifestations of beauty. His inspiration is derived from Japanese literature and arts, 20th-century Hollywood film-noir movies, Italian and French cinema, paintings (renaissance, Belgian surrealism, pop-art, pre-raphaelites), music, and books.
