Artwork location: France
A man, a silhouette surrounded by a crowd, but alone, in our image. And yet illuminated, saved by this light emanating from “The Electricity Fairy” by Raoul Dufy. Prince Myshkin's statement in Dostoyevsky's The Idiot came back to me while working on this photo: “Beauty will save the world”.
This photo is part of the “Luminous solitudes” series and is also available in two other formats, one larger, one smaller.

Presentation
Steps :
To talk about my work, you have to go back to the origins.
The 70s, with the beginning of fine photographic art, the meeting with photographers Ralph Gibson and Duane Michals both on the line of demarcation, where reality becomes abstract.
It was therefore towards a creation diametrically opposed to that of conceptual photography that I was moving towards, a creation where there is no difference between the imaginary and reality. I decided then that my photos will not show, will not explain, will not question. They will open the doors to emotions.
I like to quote Gerhard Richter: "I obey no intention, no system, no tendency.. I like uncertainty, infinity and permanent insecurity". Bio:
Even though I became interested in music at a very young age through the piano, I always felt like a photographer. Always a matter of perspective. First more on the side of black and white than color.
The meeting with Helmut Newton, whose assistant I was, opened the doors to the world of fashion where I made a career working for the main French and Italian fashion magazines.
Today visual artist photography has replaced fashion and it is no longer in magazines but in French and foreign galleries that my work is exhibited.
