A. Jean-Baptiste Huynh

Jean-Baptiste Huynh was born in Châteauroux in 1966 to a French mother and Vietnamese father. He taught himself the techniques of photography, lighting and printing, and has thus developed a personal, understated photographic style practised through portraiture, nudes and still life or, more recently, the series Mirrors, Fire and Twilights.

His research is primarily focused on perspective, light, timelessness and links with the infinite.

His photography is showcased through exhibitions, displays and publications which are considered to form an integral part of his projects and a complete expression of his vision. He has penned nine publications on portraiture. Recipient of the Extramural Villa Medici grant, Jean-Baptiste Huynh exhibits across various galleries and museums worldwide.
