Film director and Director of photography based in Vietnam since 1999.
I have seen this country change so fast and I am still fascinated by how modern times have changed the landscape and people.
Urbanisation, poverty, environment and comfort are some of the crucial challenges mankind face in this new century. In this perspective, Vietnam epitomizes what is happening on earth, and where solutions could be experimented for our development or our survival depending on the choices we make.
AN PHU TRUE COLORS
In An Phu, as well in Vietnam, disorder, discord of colours scramble our vision. Getting rid of most of the colours and only keeping one helps me attain a deeper vision on what I shoot. I want with these pictures to get the spirit of what surrounds us and what becomes invisible after a certain time. These images are somehow mental pictures stocked in our brain in an unconscious manner. They are very specific and represent only Vietnam even if what is representing here happens in many countries -- only the details make a difference and that is exactly what grabs my interest. In these tiny specifics, I believe there is beauty and emotion also as human beings we are all the same but also all different.
