Tina MERANDON explores human-animal relationships through staged and documentary photography. Her work often shows children, performers, or everyday people in unexpected encounters with animals, blending play, instinct, and social dynamics. Between portraiture and performative imagery, she focuses on body language and emotional nuance. Subtle gestures reveal complex ties between humans, animals, and culture.
In Anima, MERANDON captures the silent choreography between a child and their animal — a bond that is tender, instinctual, and paradoxical. The animal reflects the child’s moods and silences. Together, they form an intimate duet where trust grows without words. Each image captures something fleeting and deeply felt — a quiet moment of recognition between two sentient beings.
