Artist's Comments

Démarche:
Interroger le monde hypermoderne dans lequel on vis et tenté de brisé l'hyperindividualisme et l’anonymat de la grande ville. En allant dans des Non-lieux (métro, centre commercial, rue passante à l’heure de point) et en demandant à des étranger de les prendre en photo, je brise pour quelque instant le fonctionnement habituelle de ce monde hypermoderne. Je rend ces Non-lieux existants en y créant un événement dont l’étranger vas se souvenir. Mes modèles je les choisis non pas pour leurs beautés esthétiques, mais pour leurs beautés émotionnelles du moment.

Approach to photography:
Questioning the hypermodern world in which we are living and trying to break this hyper-individualism and the anonymity of the big city. By going into “Non-lieux” (no existing places) (subways, malls, and crowded streets at rush hours …;) and by talking to people to take photos, I break the usual way this hyper-modern world works for a few instants. I make real these “non-lieux” by creating an event that the stranger will remember. I choose my models because of the emotional beauty of the instant and not because of their esthetic beauties.

You're spot on about mentioning the emotional beauty. The emotions are so strong.

people - all of them - look at you in a very strange way. It is somehow a shock how much emotion they convey to you. reminds me of magnets.

I love the explanation you provide here, your pics don't need it, but it's beautiful.

i love how you do what you do and i love -lovelovelove- what you do.

Also, I have a rule to faving: i only fav the images i'd hang to my walls, what i'd love to have under my eye, what can bring beauty to my everyday life.

I make an exception for you.

Le truc qui m'agasse, c'est que je n'aurais jamais penser que cette femme aurais pu etre aussi belle.

Je sais que de loin, je la croirais plutot bizarre...

Et j'ai bien aimé ton interview.^^
J'adorerais voir le prochain projet, aussi pervert qu'il resonne. Je pari qu'avec toi, ca se transformera en art.^^

(P.S: la verité n'est pas pour les cons, elle est faite pour les gens sans imagination.^^)
