Des murs/ frontières partout dans le monde ont été un jour construits, coupant l'homme de ses racines, de sa famille, souvent dans la violence et l'obligation d'errance, de fuite.
Au cœur du village de Heyri Art Valley, Benoît Delomez se met en quête d'un lieu, un espace déconnecté de toute fonctionnalité, voire même d'appartenance à un territoire.
Sa déambulation l'amène à sélectionner deux lieux. Comme une évidence, ce mur de béton gris avec ces deux tables renversées l'une sur l'autre ou bien cette bâche plastique recouvrant deux objets mystérieux seront le point de départ de son travail. Le cadrage photographique met en avant les qualités plastiques du lieu, en tant qu' espace de réflexion : interrogation sur la perte d'identité, dualité, miroir.

Benoit Delomez is a photographer and visual artist whose work has explored the landscape for more than twenty-five years. Whether in natural or urban environments, in motion or still, he seeks to magnify the landscape by always inscribing human presence.
His artistic approach is deeply linked to his immediate environment, which he questions in its environmental and architectural specificities. Benoit engages in reflection from the places he chooses, often extended in “in situ” installations during artist residencies. His works have been presented in various places such as the streets of Saint-Lô, the freedom tower at Mont Saint-Michel, or the Château de Lavagnac in Hérault, thus marking his commitment to exploring different territories and cultures across the world.
In his photographic installation work, Benoit Delomez constantly uses mixed techniques. He integrates the mirror and the volume in or on the image, playing with their polysemous and physical characteristics to create unique compositions. The association between photography and the mirror makes it possible to capture fragmented images, disrupting the usual reading references and opening new visual perspectives.
Graduated in Interior Architecture in 1985, Benoit Delomez chose to become a visual artist and photographer in 1992. His work has been widely exhibited and recognized, and he has benefited from numerous artist residencies as well as individual assistance to the creation on the part of the DRAC of Basse-Normandie. In addition to his artistic practice, he is also co-founder and organizer of artistic events, notably within the association "VAERTIGO" and the Contemporary Creation Center "2ANGLES" in Flers de l'Orne, in Normandy.
