Getaway to Deauville
"For Deauville, I decided to create objects related to the main themes that make up the prestige of the town - the beach, the casino, the equestrian competitions and the Norman houses - and then to photograph them in different places in the manner of a collage. These places are thus confronted with the plastic interpretation that I have made of them and become, in a way, the studio of my still lifes.PS: it's a bit kitschy as a title but at the same time I find that my photos are colorful and lively, not "headstrong". A bit like a woman who would escape for a weekend in Deauville to play roulette in her pretty pumps and walk around with her Norman bag admiring the flowers."
