CONCEPT

Nowadays, 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.


LAKE A PAINTING

Look at how in front of you everything is just lines and space! Don't you feel as if you're standing at the end of the world, in free dialogue with the universe?

Ferdinand Hodler 1853-1918


LAKE A PANORAMIC

Yes...Atmosphere is my style.

William Turner 1775-1851

Admiring in turn the sky, divine face, the lake, divine mirror!

Victor Hugo 1802-1885


LAKE SILVER

The gaze doesn't take hold of the images, they take hold of the gaze. They flood consciousness.

Franz Kafka 1883-1924


LAKE BLACK

My instrument was no longer black, but this secret light coming from the dark.

Pierre Soulages 1919-2022


LAKE WAVES

There's an emergency; there's the light, it's going to last ten seconds, so there's an emergency.

Jean-Luc Godard 1930-2022


LAKE A JET OF LIGHT

So quiet and peaceful
Tranquil and blissful
There's a kind of magic in the air
What a truly magnificent view
A breathtaking scene
With the dreams of the world
In the palm of your hand
