sacred frontiers (Series)
DESCRIPTION
this serie composed of 14 images, each 42x42cm, explores the photographic image as a frontier.
Frontiers allow at the same time to set a territory, a culture and to welcome from outside like a door in the house.
No artificial emotion or pathos here, a non compromised priority to the idea then to the image.
Keeping in mind that "the more the words the less the meaning".
