My present work
explores the problems of the contemporary cities confronted to the
changes caused by the new economical choices,
the changes in companies and industrial
production.
All these ideological changes lead to new
arrangements of urban spaces, create new ways of thinking and living the city that cause new conflicts.
It seems easier to point out, in the organization of the city, the familiar
layouts and zoning issued from social hierarchies.
Great is the temptation to erase every trace
of the industrial era.
My ambition is to try to shed light to these
issues by the description and analysis of different urban situations, in France and in Europe,
according to historical,
geographical and sociological points of view.
What do our cities, factories, houses become; how do we feel them
today?
My project is artistic.
This new site displays ( it will include
other "existing" works soon ) pictures, series that exist as prints,
framed or not, in their intended form, "ready to use".
In the previous site, works that, for
financial or other reasons, were not printed, but are important
anyway and wait for their physical existence.
