Nathalie Daoust - Whether in New York, Tokyo or Barcelona, Nathalie Daoust has always asserted a child’s contempt for reality. The young photographer from Montreal has devoted all her art to unveiling the secrets hidden under the apparent stability of forms. Her fascination for hotel rooms attests to her interest in intimacy : that which is fashioned in the blurs, the ghostly shadows and the blotted contours. Sheltered from the light of day, her rooms fashioned after Lewis Carroll notions welcome fuzzy silhouettes, sometimes erotic, pared down, always with a point of humor. Daoust is a conceptual creator, photographer and set designer, an explorer in the artistic adventure. Until now her peregrinations have taken her from New York, the Carlton Arms hotel, to the Love Hotels of Tokyo, the workshop of a printer in Bali, or a high tech lab in Sydney. So many kinds of reality to filter through her fantasies.
