Ces bananes géantes jetées à la mer et qui semblent flotter sont mises en scène pour rappeler que 30% de la production alimentaire mondiale n’arrive jamais dans nos assiettes. En Afghanistan par exemple, un programme de la FAO a réduit les pertes après récolte de 20 à 2%, grâce à l’amélioration des installations de stockage des céréales et des compétences des forgerons locaux en construction de silos.

Gaspard de Gouges lives and works in the Gard, between Montpellier and Marseille (France). He is a graduate of the National School of Decorative Arts in Paris. In the early 2000s, he began to paint large format figurative canvases, group portraits. Since 2021 he has devoted himself to photography, which has become a game for him, a kind of motionless journey.

"I started photographing scenes when I was 10 years old, with very realistic toys and models that I built with stalks of dry grass, miniature vehicles. For a long time I wanted to photograph islands, to their dreamlike power, I love to travel there and their memory persists. Their existence plunges us into an elsewhere. I imagined them tropical, but it is on mineral and Mediterranean islands that I finally decided to evoke. My approach is to create stagings, artificial but plausible, realistic landscapes. I create imaginary worlds, sometimes containing ruins, at least rocks that sometimes make me think of fortresses. These landscapes surprise me and always give me a lot of pleasure to create. "
