Openings


I begin to explore

   Initiating the journey, opening up the possibilities of the game
   Accompanying the sharp line of the walls stretching towards the horizon
   Approaching, gently touching the material in a soft and respectful movement
   Experiencing the singularity of materiality
   Making the image disappear in favor of this materiality

I traverse inhabited fictions

   Accompanying a cinematic tracking shot through strange settings
   Making latent realities visible, but otherwise invisible
   Giving a face to the absence of man
   Opening up presences in absence to build a new reality

I delve into saturated shadows

   Escort the light, driven by the intention to dispel the shadows
   Feel the shadow and its perpetual quest to reveal a presence
   Question the contrasts of solid colors that embroider the walls

I caress pure forms of light

   Dissolving the subject in space and light
   Edging the visible with distant potentials, vanishing points
   Opening to the sky to suggest flight
   Reducing the landscape to abstract geometric structures

I accompany the emergence of white abstractions

   Affirming white's status as a true color
   Rendering the inseparable links between white and black
   Confining to Asceticism to better abstract, to see deeper

I reveal agonizing solitudes

   To surprise in what we see every day what we no longer see
   To discern in the isolated motif what it possesses of purity and pain
   To find a balance between the creative power of color and the purity of line
   To unmask the presence of man behind the apparent void
   To accompany the journey with a questioning of the human condition

La ouvertures dort

I enter dark recesses


Opening breaches to flood the interior spaces with light
   Giving meaning to these thick thresholds that separate the public from the private,
   to this here that exists only through the presence of elsewhere
   Imagining the lives they have seen pass by
   Sweeping into these beautiful escapes

I escape into spectacular colors

   Letting myself be carried away by its chromatic impressions
   Escaping the night through color
   Catching our gaze, losing ourselves as if in a mirror
   Seizing the beauty of the ordinary in these walls that resemble abstract paintings

I leap over blank walls

   Isolating, to the point of monumentality, these frontal views that block the horizon of the landscape
   Capturing plays of light on the facades of unremarkable buildings
   Creating the wall, both a fragment of a place of confinement and a subject for dreams
   Transforming solitary and silent scenes into sources of protection and renewal, private sanctuaries
   Marking the breadth of all possible paths

I escape into a vibrant epilogue

   Being carried away by a vibrant impression of atmosphere and space
   Painting the light, illuminating the silence of facades
   Continuing the journey in pursuit of light and shadows over time
   Perpetuating the infinite sources of wonder arising from these photographic wanderings
