Robert Stivers (1953) - photo 1

Robert Stivers

Robert Stivers is an American photographer.

He became interested in photography at a mature age, after a career as a dancer and choreographer. Self-taught in the art of photography, Stivers prides himself on his printing skills. His photographs are printed on matte paper and are often tinted by hand or processed in a darkroom.

The aesthetics of early photography and silent film are evident in Stivers' work, helping the viewer immerse himself in a familiar but distant cultural unconscious. In his technique, the photographer uses defocused images, a blur of movement, to create a hazy vision of the world. In Stivers' photographs, the viewer sees ghostly images of dreams, where objects float and pose, or find themselves caught in the middle of a gesture that reflects his past history in dance.
