| Artist Statement In my approach, I do not only wish to show what things look like, but rather to invite the observer in a reflection, a questioning on what I feel about my environment and the peoples who surround me. I try to go beyond appearances while preserving an intuitive approach. My work is sober, contemplative and meditative. It is a search of the extraordinary in the ordinary, of the true beauty. In our society, it is sometimes difficult to admit that happiness lies in the small things of life, that the significant one is to enjoy well each moment intensely I have developed a fascination for the banal moment which one qualifies often wrongly as ordinary. We live in a time of sensationalism. With the influence of the media, one too often aspires to a way of life which can exist only in our imagination. One too often, we forget to taste life and true moments. Now in my forties, I realize that it is difficult to change the world and that it is more significant to live one's own life in a more intense way and to seek more fundamental values. Photography enables me to feel life with a new level of perception. The still image enables me to seize these moments of life which are often considered to be transitory at the time but which can leave a mark in our memory. My technique is simple, direct and meticulous. I avoid distracting with special effects. I try to open myself, to let myself be invaded by the present moment. The difficulty consists in being able to collect these moments without too much interference; to be attentive. |
