ciel_paul
Ciel Paul is an artist working across photography and painting. His practice explores how the built environment and our lived experiences resonate with one another, and how that resonance manifests visually in structures and surfaces of our environment. Through image-making, casting, and material experimentation, he develops visual vocabularies that probe the tension between order and entropy, permanence and fragility.
