About Philip Van Avermaet “Photography”
Philip Van Avermaet
Blonay – Switzerland
Philip was interested in photography from his young age, but the real switch to digital and artistic photography was in 2012 after a visit to the Picasso Museum in Malaga. He looks for the little details, things that are often very visible to our eyes but that we no longer notice in everyday life. After his first exhibitions in 2013 in Switzerland, his works were in various exhibitions in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Philip’s photos often let your imagination run wild, often simple things created with the inspiration and imagination of the artist.
“Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” (Antoine de Saint-Exupery)

Some works
My vision
More than just photography
In photography the work isn’t over when the picture is taken, then the real work just beginns with the input of the personal view and artistic inspiration of the photographer.
Photo-editing
The artistic input
The photo editing is an important part of the photography process, changing colors, contrast,…
It is the moment when a “simple” picture can become a real piece of art.
