IN SITU (Series)
DESCRIPTION
IN SITU
"When the body gets lost in the scenery, the mind wanders in a universe as vast as intimacy." (Helene Veilleux)
The topic of these series is the presence, the relation to the surroundings and the body, when it resonates and collides with the moment.
Some characters sometimes choose a beautiful place to suffer alone. Others are constrained to say or wait into a limited space, struggling to find another one by the vision or dream.
Note that these series where took in a street photography way, nothing planed, this explains the few pictures gathered in 6 years.
AUTHOR
BIO: Self taught artist for 20 years, my work is dedicated to human photography and in particular the relationship between mind and body : while the first may wander in space and time, the second is subject to present and keeps visible traces of the past. My scope is between what we are inside, what we show and the particular resonance with the surroundings. I trigger when these elements form one single message.
