In the mirror, every scar tells a tale of survival, and every smile narrates a story of resilience

Nelson Mandela


LAKE A MIRROR

LAKE A MIRROR is a collection of photographs all taken from the same place, and always from the same horizon, the lake… only the moment and the framing change. They are the raw reflet of the nature, seasons, wind, clouds, sun, moon, night,... 

They are the mirror of our moods, our emotions, our joys, our sorrows, our external lights and our internal shadows... The lake, mirror of the soul and the solitude of man in the immensityThey are snapshots of truth without filter, raw paintings, in which landmarks get lost, lights get reflected,... and thoughts escape. 


CONCEPT

The lake as a canvas, the sun and light as paint, the wind and waves as brushes, the photographer to immortalise this painting, the artist to reflect his emotions in the mirror-like lake.

Filters and other digital artifices add to the photograph’s contrasts, colors, and spectacular lights. In an instant these unreal images jump to our eyes... And dazzle us, not to say blind us.

Here, on the contrary, with these raw photographs you have to take the time to let your gaze plunge into the image, the mirror, the lake... and see.


COLLECTION

The LAKE A MIRROR collection, which began in 2017, currently consists of seven art series of 10 to 30 photographs each. The LAKE A PAINTING series of painting-like photographs, the LAKE A PANORAMIC series of panoramic photographs, and five more abstract series LAKE GOLD, LAKE SILVER, LAKE BLACKLAKE WAVES and LAKE MATRIX.

A separate collection of around a hundred images, both artistic and decorative, specially selected through a competition for the iconic Hôtel Métropole in Geneva, is entitled LAKE A JET OF LIGHT.
