Thao Courtial

Prints

As soon as she was old enough, Thao Courtial started taking photographs with her father's camera.

"It was obvious to me that this was going to be my way of expressing myself and reinterpreting the world", she says.

Thao started taking pictures of her travels to keep as memories but soon felt the need to go beyond that. Her photo art prints capture the magic of the world we live in.

"I travel light, and with very little equipment, I have my camera and two lenses, a 50mm and a 35mm. For each destination, I create a mental mood board by asking myself how the country inspires me and how I felt being there. Then, I look for the right light and set my colours as a painter would," she says.
