Antoine Buttafoghi's photographs emphasize solitude and are composed around the human being, connected or not to his environment, in all its diversity. Alain Le Chapelier is interested in the human condition through his photographic series capturing his subjects in interaction with their environment over the years. The aesthetic research of the painter Aurélie Bauer, inspired by the technique of the Impressionists, takes us into the very heart of creation in her series "Ateliers d'artistes", mixing intimacy, experiences and the exaltation of the birth of a unique work of art, which is often inaccessible. The artist-photographer duo Ana D and Noora K underline the importance of seeing the world as it is and of rediscovering the lost alliance with nature
Bertrand Gruyer's uniqueness is underlined by the fact that he creates his photographic works directly when he shoots, without retouching or cropping, while opening the doors to the imagination from simple reality. Bruno Palisson shares the photographed hope by drawing on its emotional dimension of frozen moments in time, which he combines with a surrealist abstract composition. Charles Hamonnais' photographic research aims to understand the human race in its entirety in order to capture the perception of the world. With his series "Lightscapes", the photographer Charles Weber underlines the poetry, the chance and the surprises of each place photographed at night, asleep under the moon, by waking them up with colour. The experiments with Indian ink and the pen of the draughtsman Eric Dabancourt make him a spectator of the life of the line he creates through each work, a furtive and instinctive birth inspired as much by his walks at low tide as by his human convictions.
Sculptor Florence Sartori places the woman at the centre of her aesthetic universe, combining a resolutely life-oriented approach with the sensuality of the curves of the female body. The golden thread of Hélène Hubert's photographic work is the energy that animates the still lifes, and reveals this troubled zone between the object, its reflection and what it may represent. Harry Ergott's pictorial research focuses on female nudes, exploiting the melodies of the human form that he transcribes in his paintings based on spontaneity and the energy of the moment. Isabelle Vougny transposes us into a poetic painting in harmony with nature, based on an anchoring of the body and the spirit, while being connected to the cosmic life of reality.
Photographer Maxime Vignaud confides in us in his photographic series "Resurrection" his deep belief that death is a rebirth; he underlines the eternal love we have for our loved ones by incorporating their presence in reality. Mireille Lopez reveals her soul in her abstract paintings and gives substance to emotions, feelings and relationships with others by capturing human beauty and fragility. Nathan Soulez-Larivière's photographs show his sensitivity to the beauty of nature and dedicate his works to the service of human consciousness. The artistic research of the painter Rosario Galatioto corresponds to a primitive, almost archaeological language, whose series "The Strata" represents the fractures observed in nature, the collapses of the earth's crust.
