In addition to their powerful photogenic aspect, brownfields carry with them equally strong political, environmental, economic and social issues. It is this particular aestheticism and these societal questions that interest me and that I try to translate into my photographs. which relate to landscape, architecture and still life. It is for me a work that is both documentary and artistic, asking the question of the past, the present and the future of human activity. I have been photographing industrial wastelands in France since 2011. I use natural light and a tripod.

I am a photographer and author born in 1960 in Paris, France. My father, photographer and printer, passed on to him the passion and culture of images very early on. I nevertheless turned towards the profession of economist while cultivating a passion for 19th century travel photography, mainly in Japan and Egypt. I thus signed two art books on this subject, mixing period photos and travel stories. In 2021, I decided to devote himself fully to photography, which he sees as an extension of his training in social sciences. I always seeks to understand how human societies function.
