Clarissa Bonet at The Filter Festival




I went to see Clarissa Bonet's work during the Chicago Filter Festival. Her images are quite elegant. City Space exhibits the perfect marriage between street photography and controlled studio lighting. Bonet brings control to the chaos that is Street Photography. Ahh! but once you harness the control, it isn't really street photography at all. But that is ok. City Space is a stylized portrayal of urban life that works brilliantly. Each photo represents an almost exaggerated theatrical rendition of the metropolitan spirit.

Bonet's urban images exude a soothing smoothness that cannot be ignored.
