Self-taught, photography has been a passion since the age of 15, when I acquired my first camera, a Zenith E. In the early days, learning from a book on "creative photography" shaped my eye. Whatever the subject, my eye remains sensitive to original framing, graphic shapes, saturated colours and high contrasts. For the current project, "Surrealist body", I've taken up a new photographic practice, making photomontages in Photoshop. These are made (without AI) from digitised personal slides. This new practice opens up an infinite space for creativity. As with surrealist painting, these photomontages satisfy my desire to transform reality into the imaginary without the constraints of reason. Ongoing project: "Surrealist Body" This ongoing project is based on my attraction to surrealist painting, in particular the work of René Magritte. The two paintings “Torse nu dans les nuages” (1937) and “Magie noire” (1945) were the first source of inspiration. The exploration of various other works by the painter, including “La géante” (1929), enabled this project to be developed. Transforming human bodies into sculpted torsos and also, within the same image, depicting them in different ways offer greater freedom to develop imaginary. The composition is minimal in favor of color, which takes sometimes center stage. Color alone can express a message, for example minimising the role of a character. The cloud motif, so dear to René Magritte, is a major component. Depending on the image, the clouds become an enhancement to the body, a support for an element or a vector of dynamics. In the end, photography dialogues with painting and sculpture.
