entry description
My life has always been close to nature, in a house near the forest, with dogs and cats under my feet. I remember long hours spent in the garden. That close contact with nature meant that I always felt a part of it. Instinctively, I tried to guess the content encoded in it. To this day, that contact does not allow me to limit myself to talk to people only or to listen to sounds produced only by man-made instruments. In the world in which man perceives himself and nature as two separate entities, we need a time of a return, so that the explicit and hidden content that has always been encoded in the nature came back to us once again. We need to listen to the nature's stories.about the photographer
