BIO
Pauline Goyard is a French photographer and digital artist whose dark surrealist fine art is both eye-catching and gut-wrenching. While she began her career as a graphic designer, it never gave the sense of fulfillment photography offered, so Pauline soon opened her own portrait studio and began working full-time. She now divides her time experimenting new digital medias to make fine art projects, and teaching other creatives around the world to create breathtaking visuals.
“the beautiful thing about humanity is to find a way to make something beautiful and meaningful out of something that was painful. I think profound transformation is never about removing the pain or the imperfection, it’s about keeping them and transcending them into something that’s worth keeping and worth living through.”
