About | Mercedes Parodi Studio

Mercedes Parodi is a British photographic artist based between London and Aix-en-Provence, France, where she has lived for over two decades and studied digital photography at ESSAIX (L'École supérieure d'art d'Aix-en-Provence) from 2009 to 2013.

She approaches photography as a connective practice – the camera not only captures light, but also records energetic presence and interaction.

Protean light is both her medium and subject. Over fifteen years of intensive practice, she has created a substantial body of work exploring light and form.

Her immersive, large-scale compositions address the human condition – exploring themes of transition, interaction, and movement from darkness toward light.

The large format photographic artworks are created using traditional editing tools (no AI). Her process spans spontaneous light capture, meticulously layered composition, and hand-driven autonomous pixel re-formation.

Over a decade of photographing the mythological statuary and light sources across the Versailles estate has resulted in 'The Versailles Mythology Collection' – 30 compositions that invite viewers into an immersive encounter with both historical legacy and contemporary vision.

'The Versailles Mythology Collection' is now available for the first time in certified limited editions produced to museum standards.
