Christian Vermeiren is a fine art photographer whose work explores the threshold between reality and abstraction.
Through ponds, forests, beaches, and fragments of stained glass, his images reveal hidden paintings within the natural and cultural landscape.
Rather than documenting, his photography invites contemplation, silence, and poetry — a way of seeing that resonates with painting and memory.
His influences include impressionist painting, Japanese minimalism, and modernist photography. In all his series, the goal remains the same: to transform the visible into an open space for imagination. Many of his pictures are simplified and often taken out of their broader context, in order to prompt the viewer to imagine his or her own interpretation.
Working primarily in Belgium and Northern Europe, he focuses on limited edition fine art prints, using archival papers and professional mounting techniques such as Dibond and plexiglass face-mounting. Each work is conceived not only as a photograph but as a lasting art object, crafted with care for collectors and art lovers alike.
