Photographer
Philippe Shangti gives free rein to his extravagance, and the attraction he has for aesthetics, stage setting and theatricality.
His signature style: a pop, glamorous universe, brightly coloured, with a twist of humor and provocation.
This self-taught photographer’s cocktail of visual emotions catch the eyes of numerous audiences.
He sees his photographs as an exquisite weapon of accusation which are inspired by the nightlife, its players and excesses.
He desires to reveal its hypocrisies and show how the inhabitants of this fool’s paradise are living in denial.
His themes are offen taboos, express strong emotions such as “Art vs Drugs”, his first truly committed series “No Cocaine Here” which today encompasses diverse works, or, in a completely different vein, his new series “No Prostitution Here”.
