Mathieu Grosche, learned self-taught photography after meeting a Lomo camera bought for 5 euros on a market in Romania. His curiosity led him to many adventures and projects here and there, whether as a gold digger in Canada, director of a circus company in Ethiopia, co-inventor of a bicycle tractor, painter-designer in Benin, assistant artist in New York, photo-video reporter in the Balkans, sales representative in Montreal, designer workshop manager in Paris.
Besides these different explorations, sometimes ephemeral, photography is, moreover, a medium that he has explored endlessly for many years with the eyes of a documentary photographer. This documentation of reality serves him as raw material to shape another story, between fiction and reality, whose narrative and poetry mix color and black & white as well as texts and images.
