Agathe Toman – Shared Collection
Fine art photography – Basque Country, August 2024

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 investigation where the landscape becomes a mental space, between presence, memory and disappearance.

Photograph produced on film using a Leica Leicaflex.

The image treatment, deliberately contrasted 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 the COLLECTION PARTAGÉE by Agathe Toman, 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 blending drawing, painting, photography, poetry and sculpture around the connections 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 with Sotheby’s since 2021, where several of her works have been put up for auction. Her work has notably been presented at Art Paris and published in media such as Forbes, L’Œil and ELLE.

Through her photographs, Agathe Toman seeks less to document reality than to reveal what eludes it. Her images question our relationship to memory, to the living, and to interior landscapes. Between abstraction and figuration, they invite the viewer to 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 is seen, but what the image awakens in us.” — Agathe Toman
