Description from the seller

JD - #7 - Ephemeral Elegance
Digital print - Artist's seal, Hand-signed
Unique 1/1 artwork numbered and hand-signed by the artist on the back of the piece.

Dimensions: 50 x 50 cm

Description:

At the heart of a street forgotten by time, a silhouette appears. A woman slowly advances, wrapped in a long dress whose patterns seem to mingle with the textures of the world around her. The tired buildings, walls marked by the years, and hanging cables tell the story of a place rich in memory.

The contrast is striking: the timeless elegance of the dress against the roughness of an almost abandoned urban setting. The scene then becomes a true cinematic tableau, where grace meets raw reality. The black and white amplifies this visual and emotional tension, revealing every detail, every shadow, every texture.

The subject's mysterious gaze and determined walk invite the viewer to imagine a story: is she passing through, on the run, or simply traversing a suspended moment in time?

This work explores beauty in imperfection and the silent power of a human presence in an environment marked by the wear of the world.

Highlights of the work:
• Cinematic black-and-white aesthetics
• Strong contrast between elegance and raw surroundings
• Bold narrative composition that sparks the imagination
• Artistic style close to editorial photography and auteur cinema

This piece speaks to collectors and lovers of contemporary photography who seek a strong image, at once elegant and emotionally charged.

A image that tells a story... and continues to tell it with every gaze.

Technique:
High-resolution digital photography, printed on professional photo paper Hahnemühle, unique edition, numbered and signed by the artist.

Biography:

French photographer passionate about light and color, I convey the emotion of metropolises from a unique angle, playing with reflections and perspective. Exhibited in several art galleries.

Through my images, I seek to capture the vibrant soul of urban life.

Treat yourself – or give to a photography enthusiast – a work that transcends everyday life, at the crossroads of painting and visual poetry.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.
I did specify 2/30 as the edition number (and not 1/10).

Regarding my background, I am a Paris-based photographer, self-taught but deeply nourished by art and light. For several years, I have dedicated my gaze to capturing what is left unsaid: emotions, suspended moments, contrasts between shadow and light. Light is, for me, a language, a thread that connects my works — it shapes, reveals, and sometimes conceals, like human emotions.

My work has been shown in several juried group exhibitions in Paris and the surrounding region, as well as at events dedicated to contemporary photography. Each series is an intimate exploration of the sensitive and the poetry of daily life.
