Clint Saunders' zoom lens allows us a glimpse into the imaginative world of glass and light and color. An alternative reality is presented in this artist's digital photography, finding fancy and magic in everyday objects or the movement of an arm. After a youth spent drawing, Clint Saunders is now completing his MFA in photography in San Francisco. With a keen, clear eye for detail and perfection in everything he creates, he is also playful, experimental, allowing soulful colors – using light as a means to color – to intermingle and become something altogether new. It is evident that music is a large influence in the artist's work, as what is captured is fluid and bounding, so that the song in his head is communicated through the image.
His innovative photography is at once explosive and smooth, revealing the softness of the physical world. As Saunders states, light is his medium, proven by ability, his ability to transport the viewer to the spaces between.
