I remember reading one day these words: “There are cities that we go through and permeate us from head to toe …” It’s a bit what happened between Paris and me. Since my first visit there, Paris has never left my dreams. I inevitably began to photograph the city through my eyes. I must admit that it is very difficult. Because of great photographers have already addressed the issue with incredible records. But I am continuing my efforts. Each time, to create / raise new questions of visual search in the centre of the urban landscape of Paris. I do not hide that this relationship is constantly evolving and that this research makes me better photographer. Besides, I ask nothing other for this city to continue to exist.
