Dorte Verner Photography

Dorte Verner was born in Denmark and lives in Washington, D.C., USA. She is a Photographer and Development Practitioner, holds a Ph.D. in economics, and is a Fellow in the Explorers Club. Her photography focuses on people that have little voice and never make the news, but who have important knowledge and experiences to share. Verner captures its strength and beauty through intimate moments. She has focused on nomads, refugees, indigenous people, and people affected by climate change, among other changes. Verner's portfolio centers on environmental portraits, with images inspired by the lives and livelihoods of people living in extreme situations. Her photographs are featured in many shows and galleries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the USA. Currently, Verner’s photographs are exhibited in “The Silk Road,” Photography Biennial of Tianshui, China; and in two solo exhibitor shows “The Sahel,” “The World Bank,” USA and “Beyond Borders,” Henry Luce III Center for Arts and Religion, Washington D.C., USA. They are also on permanent display in International Organizations and published in magazines such as GEO and Vanity Fair and on the cover of books and publications.

Pointe - underwater photograph - archival pigment print 24x17"

By Alex Sher

Located in Beverly Hills, CA

This elegant underwater photograph captures a ballet dancer in pointe shoes and flowing white tutu, suspended in deep teal waters. The rich contrast between the pristine white costume and the moody blue-green aquatic environment creates a dreamlike atmosphere. Sher's composition bridges classical dance and contemporary underwater photography, exploring themes of grace transcending physical boundaries. The work continues the tradition of fine art photography that documents performance art in unexpected contexts, transforming the familiar ballet pose into a surreal meditation on weightlessness and artistic expression beneath the surface. "Four years ago I wrecked my sailboat and was selfmedicating with vodka at a Russian restaurant when I suddenly noticed a cute girl hanging from the ceiling right above my glass. She was not only beautiful, she was a dancer too, and she agreed to model for me underwater. Two days later, if you stopped by my pool you’d see a fully dressed ballerina with her hands underwater and me wriggling at the bottom around her dance e shoes. I kept asking her to tie and untie her pointe hypnotized by the small hands entwined in ribbons and light. I took quite a few pictures that day. This one is my favorite." Alex Sher Original gallery quality archival pigment print on archival paper signed by the artist.
