Portraits de famille

This series is constructed as a mirror for observers. Here the way we look at the photograph matters less than what it sends back to us.

Photography observes us and gives us to read an image of what we deeply are: beings locked in our certainties without real freedom, outdated, obsolete and heading towards decline, extinction.
