Photographs
Passionate about nature and astronomy since childhood, I discovered photography at the age of 25.
Nurtured by the lights of the Pyrenees, I taught myself through experience, learning step by step in the field.
At 36, during my first journey to the Far North and my encounter with the northern lights, photography became a true revelation.
From that moment on, my lens turned toward the stars, and night photography became my field of choice.
After eight years of intense work devoted to the world of the night, I created the series Divine Comedy — a quest for light that led me from the stars of the Pyrenees to the northern lights of the Arctic skies.
Exposition
It is in darkness that the most beautiful lights are revealed…
Divine Comedy was born from my wonder for nature and my fascination with the stars.
This inner journey has guided me over eight years, from the peaks of the Pyrenees to the boreal lands of Europe.
Beneath the Milky Way or the northern lights, I set off in pursuit of my dreams, in search of light.
A speck of dust in the midst of the infinite, I found my place in this haven of whispers.
This series is an act of resistance against the accelerating pace of the world — an invitation to dream, and to perceive the elusive beauty of the night.
Here, with sincerity and humility, I share the intimate bond I have woven with that celestial light, through years of nocturnal wandering.
