Bio
In 2005, I decided to leave the corporate world and study spatial design, first in interior design then through photography. Several artistic movements have had an influence on my approach. Bauhaus and its minimalist principles have fostered the need for clarity in the creative gesture. Besides Dadaïsm, Surrealism and the work of Marcel Duchamp have led me to challenge aesthetic codes and make way for new logics in image making and analysis.
Hence my interest in the image-making process inherent in photography. My work results from multiple experimentations where the ultimate goal is not so much to capture reality as to explore new "material". Drawn from the outside world then reinvented, this material enables me to produce visions and create reconfigured spaces.
Gradually I have turned to photographic medium into a language whose vocabulary allows me to submit images and emotions to the eye. I have come to develop other languages with a view to exploring unchartered fields of experience. Thus my experimental bent has grown and I have come to invent a distinct mode of expression for each exploration. Consequently every project leads me to make up and practise a new language. The resulting works are similar to a travel story from unknown lands, without subtitles nor translation, where the presence of reality is superseded by the expansion of imagination.
