Associated PhotoGraphism

This photograph of a sunset over the Pyrenees mountain chain gave rise to the creation of a photographism entitled « Ecrin de lumière ». This photographism evokes the Egyptian hieroglyphic sign for the horizon, Akhet (N27).

This photographism is an integral part of an exhibition entitled « PhotoGraphism : Crossed Views » which was presented to the public on three occasions: in 2019 at the Galerie Dominique C. of the Château d'Auriac sur Vendinelle and at the Château des Ducs de Joyeuse in Couiza, in 2021 at the GET Cultural Center in Revel.
