To show the performance and the energy deployed by the actors of the Bourgeois Gentilhomme
directed by Denis Podalydès at the Bouffes du Nord Theater ; I wanted to photograph them
just before their incoming the stage and just after their exiting the stage stage.

He was introduced to photography by making portraits of singers and covering the 2012 presidential campaign. In the summer of 2014, he attended several courses at the EMI-CFD (such as: journalistic writing, technical portrait, press photography, audio slideshow). With these, he acquires a technique that allowed him to follow the integration of foreign children to the French education, to testify the passage of migrants in the Hungarian border and to share with the ators their lives backstage, at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord. He works with them for a month in the making of the Bourgeois Gentilhomme, directed by Denis Podalydès.
