Leslie Tabony
A self-taught digital photographer based in New Orleans, LA, leslie Tabony, is an artist using her own associations as she creates narratives which focus on the sublime and the ethereal.
The relationship of longing, sensuality and spirituality are often explored in her love of the portraiture of women.
Her work uses unusual light, diffusion, soft focus, a pictorial aesthetic and compositions to find the beauty in paring a visceral emotion amidst paradoxical extremes.
Infinitude, vulnerability, submission, reverence, sexuality, stillness, and quietude are weaved together --- So too are poetry, philosophy, eras of times gone by -- 18th, 19th and early 20th century.
Her work is mostly black and white, but sepia, duotones and even colour are used depending on the Body of Work.
