Series : Seaside
About this series : This series portrays various characters in a seaside setting. The images are connected by the common certainty of horizon and sea, which form the thematic framework. The works blur the boundaries between street photography, documentary photography and travel photography. All these shots are designed in such a way that the vanishing points within the landscape draw the viewer's eye to the pictorial surface.
The human element provides an alternative focus to the natural setting, and allows the viewer to delve into the narrative possibilities of both the figure and their relationship with the landscape. These photographs capture specific moments during these individuals’ daily lives. They display their interactions with the world they live in, reflections of their innermost thoughts and the nature of the human condition.

Presentation
"Photography is for me a leisure activity that I practice since my childhood. I learned to photograph and develop the films in the family laboratory and then shoot them under the enlarger. I stayed true to film with a hybrid technique.
The photos taken on film are traditionally developed and scanned, then printed using a Piezo Charcoal printing process, an inkjet process using carbon pigments. I also use a digital device, so I use digital and analog media together.
My favorite subjects are people in their daily environment, in the street but also in the landscape which very often bears witness to human activity or even in interiors, for example in museums.
As part of the exhibition of the National Society of Fine Arts, I was distinguished by the special mention Jean Larivière in 2014, by the Jean Larivière price in 2015, by the bronze medal of the price of the guest jury in 2016, and by the bronze medal of the guest jury and the special mention Jean Larivière in 2017."
Le Chapelier works largely with digital cameras, but refuses to employ autofocus. This shrewd artistic decision forces him to anticipate situations and adjust his equipment before taking the shot, such that he can capture his subjects mid-movement, before atmospheric backdrops. Fascinated by the human condition, Le Chapelier’s work documents the lives of both country and city dwellers. His photographic series are constantly expanding, as he continually finds new ways to capture his subjects’ interaction with their respective environments. Alain Le Chapelier's photographs are individual testimonies: each image tells a story. His inspiration is sourced from the instantaneous compositions of Cartier Bresson, but also from Willy Ronnis’ cropped photographic frames, which suggest the entrance of a new element into the picture plane before its formal arrival.
