Monkey or dog, animals strange or familiar, Belgian photographer Michel Vanden Eeckhoudt does not differentiate. He fixes a moment of meeting between two beings, so close, so different. Beyond the bizarre, beyond the comical nature that underscores without caricaturizing, there is a respect of the other, a tenderness, a humility in his photographs that charges them with rare emotion. Since he began looking through his Leica's viewfinder, he has created pure and elegant photographs marked by aconstant sense of humor. His compositions are arranged with a steady eye while managing to transform real life moments into often mysterious images. | Bittersweet by Michel Vanden Eeckhoudt, Paper over Board | Indigo Chapters
