Thierry Genay Art

b. 1958
Thierry Genay's photography is heir to a style of painting which, in the absence of noble and sublime motifs, is nourished by a perception of everyday life. His photographic compositions are part of this ever-renewed history of still life, itself a mirror of lifestyles, of a daily reality which is thus illustrated, humanistic or spiritual, of a reflection on the harmony of nature, but always an echo of the intimate. His work is a cabinet of curiosities composed of simple, natural, or manufactured objects. These are objects that lose their quality of use to become form and material, thus integrating that of the background. Modest objects that enhance each other to the point where, their values becoming equal, they blend into a composition that slides towards abstraction. It is a work in which one removes rather than adds. It is about orchestrating a precise silence, the expression of a seemingly quiet balance between forms and materials, between fullness and emptiness, between what is seen and what is not.

Spode Wildcat Prowl with Rosemary Pomegranate, limited edition photograph

Spode Creatures of Curiosity with Romanesco, limited edition photograph The Good Dishes integrates memory, legacy, and metaphor with my response to loss. As I witnessed an early generation of family members pass, my cousins and I were each faced with the emotional task of cleaning out the family home. Sorting through the heirlooms, we would determine which items to toss, sell, or preserve. Without fail, when it came to the family’s fine china, that item was always given to the person who most cherished its memory and sentimental value. Growing up in a large Italian family, everything was centered around food and the family table. I remember vividly my mother’s vintage marigold stoneware dishes that she bought at the grocery store back in the early 1970s. She used them every day for as long as I could remember, and they had a life of their own. Along with my mother’s everyday dishes...
