Negligee

2013 - Photography (Photography)

Jeff Burton

location: Los Angeles, California
year born: 1963
gender: male
nationality: American
home town: Anaheim, California

Negligee (2013) serves as an example of this tension, with its artful angle and play with shadow and light upon the sensual subject, rendering the image ambiguous. Like much of Burton’s work, Negligee reflects both his experience as a commercial photographer and his interest in the voyeurism, desire, vulnerability, and power of the photographic act.
