Featured Artist - Alain Guillou

"My goal as a photographer is to create a body of abstract works through colour, line, and shade. Because the abstract photographs are of real-life locations, they can be viewed as puzzles. Satisfaction is gained from decoding the images and leaving the viewer in the state of interpretations."

Alain Guillou sees the world through different eyes - those that have not been distracted by our fast moving modern world. At a young age, Guillou discovered photography. His quest for the perfect image is unending. He travels the globe, driven by a vigorous determination to capture the beauty that he sees and a profound respect for architecture. As a free artist he is unpredictable; his French background and his ability to see a different world through his lenses make his photography unique. He grew up in Normandy and got his education in engineering. He is a self-taught photographer.

He exhibits his work at his studio in Cambridge, at regional show and other juried art shows.
