Pierre-Yves Linot is a French-born New York-based photographer. His interest in social justice led him to create “Immigrant Song,” a project in response to the inhumanity of Trump’s immigration policies. Using an alternative process, he transfers his portraits of immigrants and still lifes to silkscreen paper.
In 2010, Pierre-Yves moved to New York, where he completed his self-taught education at the International Center of Photography and the School of Visual Arts.
His work has been exhibited in New York at Foley Gallery, Soho Photo Gallery, Orton Davis Gallery, and the School of Visual Arts, as well as in Los Angeles, Paris, and Madrid.
