EJ Lazenby
Ode To Beauty (Single)
DESCRIPTION
I wanted to create a duet, a moment of quiet celebration of beaury... The horse bows in reverence as the girl collects a precious gift to offer him.... My dove is steeped in symbolism, as are their averted gaze as the scene continues around them in slow motion.
In this piece I wanted to celebrate the beauty and grace of the girl and horse, and also their ability to mirror and reflect each others monements.
AUTHOR
A fine art graduate in 1993, I became established as a portrait painter concentrating on equines. My photography was an important supportive role offering sharp working reference imagery.
Over the last 5 years my practice has become almost exclusively photographic, exploring styled portraiture and evocative images of the horse, sometimes as partners, sometimes alone.
During covid lockdowns I experimented with remote shooting and underwater imagery, something that I have now developed into scenes reminiscent of Renaissance art.
