While sitting in the lobby of the Orient Hostel in Istanbul I came across Sebastien Assoignons, a `nomad observer`from Brussels. As we got to talking we connected on an artistic level resulting on him releasing his photos to me with Carte Blanche. I embarked on a creative, political quest to bring the meaning of his emotion rendering shots to another level. It is with his express permission that I post these transformed, interpretive works. To visit his website and follow his solo journey cycling in South America please visit his website Nomad Observer.
The Photographs in the following are some of the original prints that I worked from in an 56 x`s 30 cm format on Kodak gloss finished prints. The first photo is a self-portrait of Sebastien.
