The camera has become my passport to unfamiliar ground. While painters use a brush and authors use a pen, I use photographic images with which I express emotions and convey experiences. My photographic style is to seek out and isolate, using small vignettes that, when seen together, give my impression of the greater whole. By omitting extraneous detail, I strive to strengthen the visual impact of what I choose to include, the analogy being, ”The fewer the words, the stronger the statement”.
Philippe Clement's pictures have appeared around the world in exhibitions, calendars, postcards, books and magazines, such as BBC Wildlife magazine, Encyclopedia Britannica, Barnes & Noble, Terre Sauvage, New Scientist, IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature), Grasduinen, Ranger Rick and Natuurmonumenten among others. Closer to home, he is a regular contributor to the Publishing House Averbode, and also writes articles for Pasar and Bergen Magazine.
