Something a bit disturbing about Nadege's work - which is why I like it! Organically psychological! Good stuff. Look at her web site!

This is classic Meriau. Her work provokes you to explore our liminal worlds. Some of the works I have seen explore those of nature and nuture, the built environment and the wild, our fantasies and our politics and sustenance and shelter. Check her out www.nadegemeriau.com

Nadege Meriau is one to watch. We'd like to have her as a featured artist sometime soon.

I absolutely love this image. It has a tranquility really, which really draws me in.

Nadege Meriau has long been one of my very favourite photographers. Able to capture an ethereal, fairy-tale quality with a slightly unsettling undercurrent... mysterious and hinting at something beneath the surface. Psychologically profound, aesthetically stunning - I have some of her works on my walls and I never tire of looking at them.....

I love it... Each work from Nadege Meriau provides me with both delighting and unsettling feeling. As if I was invited to have a humorously shifted look at Nature or situations.

I suspect her to have a quirky smile each time she has a new idea ...
But there is much more than humor in he work. In the above comment, Clara had it all... There is a hidden message...

love Nadege's work - there's such atmosphere in her images. This shot, as with much of her work, gives you a feeling of expectation for a strange story to unfold.
