Vent de Poussière:
Deauville beach is a self-contained micro-universe of only six hundred and fifty meters from west to east. Just next to the city center and yet so far away, mentally and emotionally.
What plays out is an endless ballet between water and light, space and distance, sand and wind, rocks and shells, shadows and clouds, horses and dogs, high tide and low tide, the beating sun and the waves.
The harmony of these different elements is never beautiful or perfect, but that is where the freedom lies. They attract each other formally, create contrasts and movements in a strange poetry.
This"dust wind" is not only the breath that sweeps the beach, it evokes the appearance in the fog of the image, of those who cross it. The images themselves are subject to it, their texture is charcoal, grainy and yet always luminous.
