Dominique JAUSSEIN france
title
d'Ebène et d'Abîme
It is a creative work on Resilience, around a sensory and emotional universe.
This resilient attitude goes through different phases of defense to counter negative trajectories and become a vector of hope, just like Art and Culture.
It is a succession of paintings "reflections of the soul": "the submission" (prisoner of its past, its education and traditions ...), "revival, revolt and liberation", "The rejection and purification of evil being," "hope, appeasement and rebirth".
Dominique Jaussein gives here a lighting of its own, but also a shadow and depth to what it shows us.
"How is suffering born light?"
By a titanic internal struggle to free oneself from the bonds, of the invisible straitjacket carefully woven day by day by our education filled with traditions, contradictions, humiliations and real or imaginary sufferings erecting these walls which over time take on the appearance of impassable mountains separating us from the happiness of existing ...
To go deeper into the darkness
To walk tall in the unknown
To tame this night that is in us, fundamental place of questioning and quest.
His meeting with the tribes from Omo to Ethiopia, the landscapes of the Antarctic continent or even the animals from South Africa are an elegy to a world that is in the process to disappear.
His series "D'Ébène et d'Abîme" in Black and White, on Resilience, exhibited in New York in 2013, at the Darkroom Gallery in 2014, at Mark Hachem Gallery in Beirut in 2015 is undoubtedly another highlight of his work.
His approach and capture of light, which he learned at the studios Harcourt in Paris, are a signature. He likes to say that the only one true way is the one you make within yourself. Being the official photographer of the Opéra de Nice allows him to continue this inner way....
Passionate, he created in 2014 with his wife, a gallery dedicated to theart photography in Nice, the Darkroom Gallery. In permanent research of creative perspectives, the gallery offers through its exhibitionstemporary, a
selection of photographs in limited editions.
His series "Signature Gestuelle" takes a different look at Dance, a look that is his own, a work on the body signature of the dancer, essential to Choreographic Art.
His exceptional shooting with "Maikos" in Japan in the spring great artists of delicate and mysterious beauty in the last century.
Service of a modern Japan, faithful to its secular traditions, given a delicate series, highlighted by an impression on a unique Japanese paper.
The portraits brought back last summer from Papouasir New Guinea where he
met distant tribes that live in total autarchy and with whom he has experienced very strong moments of emotion.
