Entering Fanny Boucher’s workshop is for me like entering my neighborhood bakery to buy myself a plain meringue with my pocket money, at the age when my father introduced me to the principles of film development in the cellar of our building converted into a laboratory, bathed in inactinic light and the strong smell of the developer: the hanging prints that draw the eye, the scent of ink that captivates, the machines that impress, the gesture that sublimates.

I am very proud to have the privilege of collaborating with Héliog studio for the promotion of the projects developed as part of the support of the Bettencourt Schueller Foundation, following the award in 2020 of the prestigious Liliane Bettencourt Prize for the Intelligence of the hand, Exceptional talent category, for the work Arboris, photogravure wall composition two meters high.

Here, therefore, is the presentation of a box containing 4 samples of photogravure for interior decoration and design.

Thanks to Isabelle de Lasteyrie from the Agence d’Isabelle at the origin of this collaboration.

22/05/2019 - Rose Saneuil’s miniature marquetry

More than 200 pieces of a dozen different materials assembled on a disc no larger than a watch dial: this is the incredible result of the work of the French creator in marquetry Rose Saneuil to discover at the trade show Revelations which is held at the Grand Palais in Paris from 23 to 26 May 2019.

The difficulty in shooting these miniature marquetries was in highlighting the diversity of materials that react very singularly to the light. The format of the animated image was then imposed at the expense of the still image that reached its limits here.

These mini videos were created by the assembly of several dozens of high-definition digital photographs, produced as part of a partnership with Packshot Creator, well described in this article.

Or when the image is serving the product.

For the exhibition “Thread of time, textile connections” presented at the MAMA – Maison de l’Artisanat et des Métiers d’Art in Marseille from December 14, 2018 to February 16, 2019, I photographed the hands of the artists Ysabel de Maisonneuve, Diana Brennan, Veronika Moos, Sandrine Pincemaille, Fanny Viollet, Aude Tahon, Laurent Nicolas (from left to right below).

Real photographic portrait, each image incorporates an accessory and a gesture specific to the own work of the artist. It was for me a very nice moment of intimacy created and shared. Thanks to all the artists for their trust, and to Ysabel de Maisonneuve who was the artistic director of this project.

16/10/2018 - IIM Photography Workshop

As usual, it was a real pleasure to welcome a group of students of IIM – Institute of Internet and Multimedia for a Photography workshop, or how to learn the basics of photography in one week.

At a time when more than half of these students are brought, as part of their learning process, to publish content on social networks, some fundamental notions of photography were greatly appreciated. Intensive program created to measure, combining theory and practice, to respond to many situations (reportage, portrait, still life, packshot, story telling, …) using the technique (camera settings, shooting techniques, editing, metadata, digital workflow, online publishing, …).

For more information, an article – written in French – can be read on the IIM blog.

15/09/2016 - Forest of Resonating Lamps – One Stroke

Video captation and photography of the installation “Forest of Resonating Lamps – One stroke” presented by TeamLab at the fair Maison et Objet Paris at Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre, France, from September 2nd to September 6th, 2016.

When a person stands still at close range to a lamp, it shines brightly and emits a color that resonates out. The light of this lamp becomes the starting point, and it spreads to the two nearest lamps. The light from the lamps transmits the same color to other lamps, one after another, spreading out continuously. The light transmitted from the lamp always resonates out at a bright light once, passing between close lamps, till all lamps have shone brightly once, and then returns to the first lamp. The light of the lamp in response to human interaction, divides in two, becomes one optical line through all lamps respectively, finally, meeting at the first lamp that became the starting point.
