Mobile Photography & Art – ‘Intimate Interview’ with Oola Cristina from the Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA

22/07/201922/07/2019 by Joanne Carter

I have spent many a day looking upon Cristina’s mobile digital illustrations. I would say she is one of the leading figures of the surrealist movement of this growing artform. The selection of images that we have included within this interview represent a superbly lucid and erudite collection of collage and visual illusions. I consider this collection some of Cristina’s greatest work.

This is our thirty second published interview within this series of ‘intimate interviews’, this time with Oola Cristina from from the Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA.

Mobile Photography & Art – ‘Intimate Interview’ with Kathleen Magner-Rios from Wilmington, Delaware, United States

19/07/201919/07/2019 by Joanne Carter

Today, we are publishing our thirty first interview within this series of ‘intimate interviews’, this time with Kathleen Magner-Rios from Wilmington, Delaware, United States. I first became aware of Magner-Rios’ work through her iPhone photography but in order to publish, with confidence, interviews for our readers, I like to read around the subjects too. In Magner-Rios’ case I have been rewarded by doing so with stunning nature, botanical and travel images. These are not only mobile photography, but digital slr too. The expansiveness of her work builds with my own sense of what photography is about, she’s a visionary, wrestling with the point at which body and spirit meet.

Mobile Photography & Art – ‘Intimate Interview’ with Sean Hayes from Brussels, Belgium

17/07/201917/07/2019 by Joanne Carter

Sean Hayes is something of a cultural artist crossing geographic boundaries, one who transforms cultural landscapes. His art is an experience, his portraiture and street work allows for a direct and intimate interaction with the viewer. The meticulous staging of light within his images fills the air with an awareness of living. Hayes’ landscape photography owes its eloquence to its matter-of-fact nature. Everything is observed, Hayes’ images carry the romantic undertow of both myth and mystery. Hayes achieves an engaging style with his art, he not only manages to cross physical borders between countries but I feel, he has a sense of the emotional boundaries between people, his portraiture demonstrates a level of empathy with the subject that brings us into another’s world, another’s pain, another’s joy.

Hayes is an award-winning photographer whose work has been selected for exhibitions in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Miami, Milan, Brussels and Paris. In 2012, Sean was awarded an Honorable Mention in the landscape category of the Mobile Photography Awards and 2nd place in the people category of the MPA 2013. For the 2015 MPA, he received honourable mentions in the Black and White, Portraits and Photo Journalism categories. He also won 3rd place for his Photo Essay of Irish landscapes. For the 2016 MPA, he received Honorable Mentions in the People, Landscape and Transport categories. Sean lives with his Belgian wife and children in Brussels and works as a professional photographer and advertising art director.

This is our 30th interview in this series of intimate interviews. TheAppWhisperer is the world’s most popular mobile photography and art website and we feel it is important that our community feel close to one another, as it is this support that helps us to nurture each others art, gain confidence and continue to grow.
