a particle

2016 - 2017

Like a particle, the wandering photographer is both wave and corpuscle. His dispersion in space makes him escape determinism.

It is through their interactions that particles are apprehended. Some collisions of particles give rise to a particle of light: the photon.

The sensitive surface of the silver film is the witness of the photographer's interactions. Of his crossing of the real, it remains only traces: crystallizations of light.
