Balanced Perspective

Balanced Perspective

François Aubret (b. 1986) is a French photographer currently living in Los Angeles. His practice revolves around the creation of “graphic encounters” – a series of clean, colourful works that document the hidden geometries of urban civilisation. Each piece juxtaposes manmade structures with nature – concrete and painted buildings provide bold, textural relief in contrast with compressed skylines. Aubret’s aspiration is to surprise and elate the viewer – indicating both beauty and humour in homogenised landscapes and revealing order and symmetry within seemingly mundane locations. He has been featured in many publications such as Phroom and Noice, and has exhibited at MNML at Galerie Minimal, Berlin, as well as the 2018 edition of PHOTOFAIRS Shanghai. He has also been longlisted for the Aesthetica Art Prize 2019. www.francoisaubret.com  |  www.aestheticamagazine.com/art-prize
