Self-taught photographer with a background in literature and philosophy, my work quickly focused on the portrait. The human face fascinates me. I see, exposed, the tragedy of life, its precariousness, the consciousness of it and its inevitable nature. This face, I want to retain it, I don’t want it to disappear, I want it to come back or fulfil as a portrait. This impulse presides over each of the faces I photograph.
Each project is a long-term project, several months, several years. Thereby, it takes the time to deepen, to thicken. I live with the people I photograph and they live with me, we progress together.
In 2011, I show, at the Charleroi Museum of Photography, my series "I am your fantasy". In 2012, I am the winner of the BMW-Musée Niépce Residency, I realize there "The glorious". In 2013, the ghosts of the Edward S. Curtis and FSA’s portraits attract me to the USA. Completed in 2019, this work receives, twice, the CNAP Support for Contemporary Documentary Photography.
