Description:

I'm revisiting a place radically changed by the Fire that destroyed it, and I'm projecting onto it what it used to be. It's a landscape that has flipped into its photographic negative, in a strange metamorphosis. Like two parallel worlds, these photographs highlight the resonances between the two states. The interwoven fragments create a new fictional space, with its own perspective and its own rules, revealing all the more the transformations of a world undergoing profound changes. Mount Saint-Michel, in the heart of Brittany's Monts d'Arrée, suffered a massive fire in the summer of 2022 that destroyed the moorland and  by chance spared the chapel on its summit. With the financial support of François Pinault's Artemis Foundation, the entire site was restored by the Department of Finistère.
