Approach

People I have met throughout my wanderings often struck me with their relationship to their beliefs and traditions, and to the rituals which shape their days and entire lives.

​

Photography allows me to enter the intimacy of these habits which are different from my day-to-day life.

​

I like to question topics likes rites, beliefs, lonelyness or community. My work also focuses on geometry, echoes, and the passing of time.

​

I favor film whenever possible, particularly in black & white, to obtain appropriate grain and sufficient black depth.

​​

I appreciate the artisanal process of film photography, after the shot: manual cropping and makeup in the laboratory, but also the pleasure of baryta paper, its longevity and its fibrous thickness.​​

 

I also use a fixed focal length (no zoom) to get as close as possible to the subjects and create a connection through photography. It allows a gain in light and precision.​
