Since my earliest experiences in photography, I was fascinated by human behavior and its various realities, by human desire, always present, to escape to live in a dream world. I explore the thin line between reality and fantasy, where people go into exile from their everyday life. My goal as an artist is to push the boundaries of photography by exploring experimental methods, working in new mediums and discovering new techniques.

Nathalie Daoust in Montreal Was Born Where She studied photography at the Cégep du Vieux-Montréal before moving to New York to start work on “New York Hotel Story”, her first solo book. In 2001, she traveled to Japan, spending two years documenting Tokyo`s red light district. Since then, she has completed several new thematic projects including “Entre Quatre Murs, Berlin”, “Street Kiss, Brazil” and “Frozen in Time, Switzerland” and she has been featured in various individual and collective exhibitions in Canada, the United States, Poland, Finland, Spain, England and Japan. Her photographs have appeared in numerous publications and have garnered several awards.
Ever since my first experiences in photography, I have been fascinated by human behaviour and the different realities it inhabits, and by the constant human desire to escape and live in a dream world. I explore the thin line that separates reality from fantasy, the places where people seek refuge from their everyday lives. My objective as an artist is to push the limits of photography by exploring experimental approaches, working in new mediums and discovering new techniques.
