Marcher sa trace

If there is mystery in these images, in which we think that we may see masks and faces in the stones and darkened basins or recognize a body huddled in barely melted water, such mystery is not due to the subjects alone. The enigmatic, even surreal, quality that these photographs contain is also attributable largely to the precision and patience of the artist's approach. Rajotte domesticates the territories that he photographs. He visits them regularly. He explores their topography, down to the smallest recesses and tangles.
