The series "VANITAS“ uses eroticism as a symbolic lever allowing
free rein to all mental projections. Stimulating suggestion,
mixing desire and imagination, provoking the mind, affecting
senses, questioning the essence of fantasy through sacred
sexuality. Confronting the individual to a creative power that
goes beyond his immediate understanding. In the manner of a
riddle or a puzzle, these photographies paint a portrait in which
the focus is not necessarily one that the eye perceives
spontaneously. The intimate configuration of the portraits
combined with broad framed scenes helps to dilute the subject
in an apparent distance. The work puts us, through its
theatricality, in a real position of spectator. Spectator of the
scene, the spectator of our own projections, spectator of
ourselves. What the work ultimately reflects is the only
disguised portrait of our most shameful impulses - those of life,
death, outrageous sensual pleasures, of trivia and pristine
beauty.

Discovered photography at an early age with polaroid camera and felt the magic of rendering reality through a lens ! Ever since I kept on shooting, did several shows as non professional, always searching for my personal photographic expression.
