Where do the images come from?
The 60's: an uncle who regularly comes to project slides, memories of his vacations. I don't remember the pictures anymore but rather the magic of the projector, the carousel of slides passing in front of the light beam, the light revealing the images...
The 70's: old wooden frames, glass negatives and boxes of expired photo paper found in the room that served as a workshop and shed in my maternal grandfather's house. Magic and mystery of the negative....
The 80's: purchase of the first SLR and first photographic experiences in clubs. First prints, first magic... For a few years only with little perseverance however.
90's : Souvenir photos like everyone else..... With some nice surprises from time to time.
1996-1998 : slow return to the photographic desire, first through photo magazines, equipment and exhibitions, then in a more conscious process of entering photography as one enters poetry, study, meditation, yoga...
1998-2004 : purchase of a reflex, followed by a teaching with Hervé Rabot and training with Noir d'Ivoire, Hergo and Françoise Habert. Years of reunion and discoveries: the practice and the photographic history going hand in hand.
2004-2018: Reasoned and conscious constitution of a work through the elaboration a priori and a posteriori of photographic series. Sharing of these works during various collective and personal exhibitions.
2018-2022 : To be continued....
