After a career as a photographer of works of art for the greatest dealers and collectors, Thierry Malty decided to develop his own artistic eye. It is therefore with a mastery of decorations, a solid knowledge of forms and a keen sense of colors that he embarked on human portraiture.
His series quickly broke away from the world of pure representation to show a vibrant expression of each subject. The artist freeing himself from reality.
It offers a different, new image, created in harmony with new silhouettes. Thus each portrait is composed of a series of images to show the complexity of the human being, its multiplicity, each gesture or fleeting glance is captured by the shutter over time. The photographer captures all the poses and especially their movements. The transformation is given to see, which creates the particularity of his work: intermediaity.
Varying between colors and black and white Thierry Malty is at the limit of abstraction, only the dyticus or the triptych allow the narration to be reintroduced. The work on the in-between then takes on its full meaning, the artist introducing in this way the notion of time and atmosphere into his work, of contrast between the tension of a body and the relaxation of a gaze, going well beyond the aesthetic movement.
