BIOGRAPHIE

avatar_edited_edited.jpg

ANACHRONIC ERRANCES

   Born in Cahors in 1981, self-taught photographer author since 2007, my taste for photography quickly turned towards a universe that loves me and which brings together rather mysterious, enigmatic and dark atmospheres ... The desire to wander in common places or to discover the most unusual, it is with the same aim of projecting oneself elsewhere, in another time, in a fantasized past or a parallel present ... Anachronistic wanderings.

In addition to this, you need to know more about it.

My passion for the exploration photography was revealed in 2009. Loving the legends, the thrills and the strange atmospheres close to the universe of Tim Burton , the photo allows me to find and recreate more intimately these scenographies of the post apocalyptic order.

The image can please, it is supposed to move, to touch ... above all to question ... it arouses, it questions more than it shows, it creates an introspective emotion, a true mirror of our own cogitations ... it is for me the central vector of my escapes.

" JE M'IMMISCE DANS UN MONDE QUE JE NOMME ANACHRONE "

If the photo creates any emotion, it fulfills its role. Exploration photography brings to the fore very aesthetic contrasts, shadows and their opposites ... These dark places full of suffering where sometimes bathe a few rays offered me an obvious paradox which has become today an addiction as well for the lived moment that the pictorial result as well as the innumerable memories that

I have always been attracted by the notions of traces, memories, and it is by pushing open certain doors of abandoned buildings that I discovered a new form of nostalgia. These forgotten places speak to me, whisper their secrets to me ... in the dilapidation, there is a kind of sweetness, a prose, that of time which streams along the walls which appear bare like open books.

" DECLIN DE LA BEAUTE  ET  BEAUTE DU DECLIN "

Architecture de villa italienne à l'abandon

Partant du postulat que tout ce qui a été beau reste beau, on retrouve dans l'abandon une étonnante douceur, une  prose. Dans ce silence assourdissant, je perçois  mélancolie et nostalgie, je ressens une certaine plénitude. L'absence de l'humain au sens propre euphémise l'état des lieux et renforce un paradoxe poétique. Mes  photographies captent en premier le déclin de la beauté, son mystère, son atypie, sa rareté et dans ce même élan se révèle devant nous une réelle beauté du déclin, son authenticité, son étrangeté, son éclat inexorable. Mes photos tendent à retranscrire un passé décomposé dans toute sa noblesse, avec tout mon respect, je cherche à mettre en lumière leurs  résiliences. Je reste fasciné par ce constat,  ce delta,  cet écart entre la considération, la représentation et la valeur réelle de ces des lieux que je visite et ce qu'il en deviennent, leurs destins, leurs décadences, leurs inobservances. J'aime faire le focus sur ces théâtres de l'apocalypse, devant lesquels je m'émerveille pour leurs incontestables beautés et poésies, tout en montrant du doigt la perdition dont je suis témoin. 

Les lieux abandonnés sont avant tout authentiques, les ruines ont une esthétique à part, le paradoxe est saisissant, le sort triste de ces vestiges renait des ces cendres comme des contes poétiques.

   

" NOUS NE SOMMES QUE FANTÖMES PARMI LES AUTRES "

More and more, I try photography with modelsand professional dancers in this same kind of universe. I try to bring a human and fragile notion, a form of sensitive feminization bringing grace to places full of suffering. The contrast of the skin, soft and smooth, contrasts sharply with the decrepitude, cracks and other crackles of paint, the association of the two is explosive. It allows me to go beyond and extend the history of the places, it is a last story that I bring to life in these places, a half-open door to the imagination where I will then be myself a witness and future ghost of these walls. .. I manage by this means to nourish my desires of creation and go beyond the simple re-humanization, I try to flirt with the soft fantastic, the chimeras, the dreamlike, the magical bring my touch through the presence of 'an out of the ordinary and timeless being as illustrated by the Fantasia series.
