Isabelle Pautrot

Art of the moment, photography is also an art of instinct. But it is also that of observation and exploration. It is not content with the reproduction of the real and the material. And it is precisely when it manages to express a feeling, to reveal a soul, to arouse an emotion, that it leaves the restrictive field of simple description or only narration to access the vast and fertile spaces of the imagination.

A domain where the interpretation of what the eye sees opens the way to other sensations. The same subject then takes on another and a new dimension. It is no longer just what we see and take for objectively real, but somehow becomes a new thing whose contours we had not perceived at first glance. And it is the time we take to move from the first to the second degree of reflection that distinguishes us from each other.

At Isabelle Pautrot, this time is very often reduced. Because she is both a patient photographer of observation and exploration as well as a photographer guided by instinct. Where most of us pass without perceiving double meaning or hidden meaning, she flushes it out, reveals it and seizes it. And it is nature that generously offers him the opportunities, constantly renewed according to his hikes. It's her way of going on a treasure hunt.
The mountain, its blocks and rocks with steep lines, but sometimes also the trees and their bare trunks reveal their secrets to him. The lines of their contours, drawn as much by geological upheavals, by water and wind as by years, even millennia, reveal what suddenly we see as human or animal traits. Thus, the mountain reveals to us, here and there, another profile, other faces.

Go on a journey now and, in turn, discover them with curiosity and astonishment.
Enter the world of Isabelle Pautrot. From surprises to revelations, you will see everything with a new eye in this ode to Corsica, this mountain rising from the sea.
