Ronald Dagonnier: Pictures Hunger Ronald Dagonnier (B, 1967), photographer and video maker, is a "picture maker" traveller. His video installations, his pictures creations and his anamorphosis question the show of the world. As a painter, his palette shapes the cliché, New York, Jérusalem, Cuba, Ghana... He hedges off. His pictures disclose our culture and our ways of perceiving. From an animated or still picture, he always faces the human being with his position in the world. “The purpose of Ronald is to flatten both the time and the space of the filmed sequence: among the different shots of the images he chooses from the monitor those that contain the most important elements of the scene and he recomposes them on another screen. The result is a photo without the constraints of framing, a larger image than the one that our eyes can grasp and more complete than the one captured by wide angle lenses. Applyed to street or interior scenes, this method reaches the cubist ideal: make visible in 2 dimensions the essence itself of a given subject, both in time and in space.” Pierre-Yves Desaive.
