An intimate family album documents the freedoms of childhood among six siblings "at the
edge of the world" in rural France.I’m a father of six. Through my photographic work I
celebrate and document my family life : a life on the edge of the world, where
intemporality and the universality of childhood meet.
Day to day I create a family album that constitutes a legacy that I will pass on to my
children. My work reflects our way of life, revolving around their childhood. My
photographs will be the testimony of that. In a way my approach can be considered similar
to the one of an ethnologist.
Though my work is deeply personal, it is also accessible, addressing human nature and
allowing the viewer to enter my world and reflect on their own childhoods. Fed everyday
and shared with the world via the internet, my photographic production has become a means
of communication, leading to a questioning about freedom, nudity, being and having.
