Charles Xelot

Charles Xelot is a French photographer born in 1985, who travels the world in search of the perfect picture.

Charles Xelot has been travelling since several years in the frozen areas of northern Europe, places where he tries to freeze the essence of his images. The artist seeks for contemplation above all, which passes through aestheticism and pictorial research. He gets inspired by the Japanese masters and by their minimalism to try to make the best of the magic inhabiting those landscapes.
Charles Xelot's photographs generally do not have an specific subject : nature is one, and does not let any element detach from its homogenity. This pictorial harmony allows him to magnify this unique places, where man is only the partial master.
