François Rouan's Photographic Fragments
François Rouan develops photography alongside painting to create ambiguous images. His Tressements/collages involve cutting up multiple black-and-white photographs of nude female bodies, then weaving and collaging the fragments. His Epreuves négatives result from a circular mirror play during the framing of a model's genitalia.
