Created specifically for the bike path project : La Piste cyclable en œuvres, the project Éléments : entre ciel et terre is a photographic composition of natural textures coming from the original image bank of the artist shoot in the Vaudreuil-Soulanges region. The project is a research on the structures present in the natural environment. Different soils, one on top of the other, illustrate geological stratums of the earth that progress from underneath and up to the sky. The elements photographed are integrated for their diversity of textures and colors. It is an opportunity for the artist to present an original and recent artwork specifically developped for the project. A way to root himself to the artistic community where he recently moved.
