Living in Haute-Marne (France), I follow the rhythm of the forests, plains, and rivers that shape this discreet yet generous territory. Since 2009, I have been a professional photographer and videographer, guided by a visceral passion for nature, which I explore like leafing through an old book full of secrets.
I seek to reveal the invisible and capture the fragile moments that nature whispers.
My approach is that of a contemplative, curious, and somewhat stubborn naturalist, who firmly believes that we can marvel just outside our doors, provided we take the time to look.
My eye is that of a patient dreamer, a collector of wild moments, always ready to marvel at almost nothing.
Observing, understanding, waiting, and almost disappearing… to better reveal the beauty of life.

Exposition

 

This exhibition immerses you in the secret and magical moment of sporulation, the moment when mushrooms reproduce by catapulting billions of spores into the air.
These discreet alchemists of the forest explode silently, releasing colorful clouds that dance in the wind.
Often i,mperceptible to the naked eye, this natural phenomenon becomes visible and almost palpable thanks to light and photography. Each image reveals these fleeting moments when spores escape in delicate clouds, promises of lives to come.
An invitation to observe the infinitesimal and discover that even mushrooms know how to put on a show!
