Agathe Toman – Shared Collection
Fine Art Photography – The Forest, French Pyrenees (Lac de Payolle), Spring 2026

This black-and-white photograph was taken in spring 2026, in the heart of the French Pyrenees, around Lake Payolle. It belongs to the series The Forest, a photographic exploration where the landscape becomes a mental space, balancing presence, memory, and disappearance.

Silver-gelatin photograph taken with a Leica Leicaflex.

The image processing, deliberately high-contrast and rich in grain, is inspired by the aesthetics of the great Japanese photographer Daidō Moriyama. This approach gives the work a raw, organic intensity, where the photographic material is as important as the subject itself.

This work is part of AGATHE Toman’s SHARED COLLECTION, a limited-edition series designed to make her photographic work accessible to collectors.

Agathe Toman is a French artist born in 1989. A multidisciplinary artist, she develops a practice weaving drawing, painting, photography, poetry, and sculpture around the links between landscape, psyche, and memory.
After studies at the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne and several years as a stylist within Parisian haute couture houses, she chose to devote herself entirely to her artistic practice.

Her works are present in numerous private collections in Europe, the United States, and Asia. She has been listed by Sotheby’s since 2021, where several of her works have been auctioned. Her work has notably been shown at Art Paris and featured in media such as Forbes, L’Œil, and ELLE.

Through her photographs, Agathe Toman seeks less to document reality than to reveal what it eludes. Her images question our relationship to memory, to the living, and to inner landscapes. Between abstraction and figuration, they invite the viewer into a contemplative experience where each person can project their own story.
“ I consider my works as materializations of psychic states. They do not represent a landscape; they become an inner landscape. What interests me is not what one sees, but what the image awakens in us.” — Agathe Toman
