Title: Land(escape)
Description: This anthology of photographs leads and guides us through austere lands, but also from experience to vision and the visual, from the transformation of three dimensions into two, from the view to the gaze and from the translation of the context to the project. Jean-Yves Camus's photographic essay relates a story of the earth. It visually and freely recounts events from the past, events that are prehistoric (literally, before the time of stories and the language of things) and antediluvian (again literally, before the great rains of the flood from other stories). It is a story of soil, flora and climate. In this sense it is an elementary story, an initial and primordial story (if not of origins, at least well before death) related to the elements: air, water, fire and earth, like four elements of vocabulary from the lexicon of this visual discourse.
