Architecture nominee

The Roger-Quilliot Art Museum (MARQ) is located in Clermont-Ferrand (in the Montferrand district), France, in part of the buildings of a former Ursuline convent built in the 17th century. The museum building was transformed by architects Claude Gaillard and Adrien Fainsilber. The different rooms are arranged on three levels around a central atrium surmounted by a glass roof designed by the engineer Peter Rice. The museum opened in 1992.

After practising photography as a hobby since my teenage years, I bought a digital camera ten years ago and set out on new ground, with a different approach. The works of such photographers as Stephen Shore, Lewis Baltz, Alexander Gronsky, Eugène Atget, Raymond Depardon, Philippe Bazin or Thibault Cuisset have deeply inspired and stimulated me over the past years.
My own work has developed around several topics : urban landscape, rural landscape, industrial architecture, but also all the small things that are around us and which we tend to ignore as they seem trivial, outdated or discarded.
In November 2020 I published my first book, “Small shops” .
