I have been practicing photography for fifteen years. This hobby carried out by intermittent inspirations took a new turn in 2020, when I started to make my first series.
After seeing an album cover representing a mosaic inside a landscape, I coded some Python scripts to generate my own mosaics. Unlike the recent profusion of AI generated images, the use of homemade scripts allowed me to control all the steps without limiting myself to the first renderings. Each photo sometimes having thousands of variations, I focused depending on the case on the symmetry, the opposition of colors, or even the shapes emerging from these recompositions. This selection phase was a learning of compromise, where it was necessary to know when to stop or continue until the most satisfactory print.
For this series, I only foscused on photographs of the sky in which one or more birds were inscribed. Unpredictable by nature, they forced me not to get distracted in the compositions. But, whatever the arrangement chosen, the birds no longer seemed quite in their place. As if their setting no longer really belonged to them.
