Nathan Brusovani (Bar)
Brusovani uses computer applications that are more than just added affectations to existing images, but enhancements that seem to "belong" in some strange way and add to the overall effect.
Sometimes bordering on abstract, his work contains hints of borrowed, dream-like representative features that bring one back to a form of dream-like "reality. Sober and sometimes with great restraint, these images offer a consistent, quiet, yet profound atmosphere or mood that is very compelling.
Spirituality is very much a part of his work and Judaism shines through in practically every image. This creative expression of his faith has found it's way into his art in subtle and not so subtle ways, finding a way to do this without being brashly "religious". A world of visual experimentation. // ARTROM Gallery Roma, Italia

Gallery comment: "Nathan Brusovani’s photograph plays with the viewer by creating an environment where movement and non-movement create a vibrating energy within the image. A juxtaposition which causes the mind to shift, to look again, to reconsider".
"I aim to combat visual mediocrity and
try to challenge the boundaries of photography by exploring the darkroom
or computer worlds of the cameraless image, the negative sandwich, multiple
printings, double exposure, the expended tonal scale, etc. My images
are personal but I sincerely hope that they have significant implications
for others to inspire them to seek out their own "humanscapes".
From the Tryst Interview: "Your work is
dark to me with your use of colors and perspective; but I noticed points
of light, like rapture as an opposing force to imply tranquility. I
am trying to understand how this happens. I know that you described
your work as humanscapes, but what are primarily the themes behind your
work? Isn’t there some statement you’re making consciously or subconsciously?"
