    ——————–

    The Druze community has a power of fascination that does not diminish since the Orientalists. Guardians of a secret and a religion described by Gérard de Nerval and Lamartine as mysterious, and who remains so today; it has preserved its traditions and an enigmatic aura despite the evolution of contemporary society.

    This exhibition is a tribute to this community. It also revolves around the idea of the re-appropriation of an old photographic technique: the wet collodion to emphasize the timelessness of his subjects. His Portraits, landscapes, and still life photographs take us on a journey into the heart of this culture so well protected.
