To mark World Environment Day, I wanted to unveil the first photograph in the series I'm working on with Yoann Lossel: "Galatea". Photographer : Pyché Ophiuchus.
Galatea" is a visual exploration of the symbiosis between nature and art. Inspired by the nymph of Greek mythology, it is a reflection on our relationship with nature. A confrontation between what is ancient and organic, like the oxidised copper statue, and what is vulnerable and fragile, like the human essence and threatened nature. By juxtaposing the immutable figure of Galatea with the dynamic and changing environment of the forest, we invite the spectator to reflect on the duality between the ephemeral and the permanent, between human creation and the immutable force of nature.
