By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/polaroid-erotica-by-kirsten-thies-van-den-oudenaarde.htmlToday, a professional photographer is associated with a fabulously expensive SLR camera. Photographer from Belgium Kirsten Thys van den Audenaerde (Kirsten Thys van den Audenaerde) destroys stereotypes and shoots real masterpieces on an old Polaroid. The camera, which even amateurs look down on today, turns out to be capable of a lot. This once again confirms the truth that it's not about equipment, but about skill and talent.
(Careful! Nude).
Kirsten used to shoot on a "DSLR". But then, as she claims, she "outgrew" it and began to shoot "Polaroid". Everyone knows that pictures with this camera don't last long. Depending on the storage conditions, they retain the image from 10 to 20 years. Kirsten Thies van den Oudenaarde says that this is the beauty of such pictures. They seem to confirm that even art is transitory, although this is denied by many creators and philosophers.
The photographer works mainly in the erotic genre. The Polaroid images are slightly blurred and have a special color scheme, in which there are almost no flashy colors and sharp contrasts. Such a result is difficult to achieve with the help of professional equipment and the images have to be processed additionally.
An important feature of Kirsten Thies van den Oudenaarde's photographs is that they cannot be changed. They are extremely honest and frank, and only change themselves over time. All this, according to the author, is very symbolic.
