Originally created following a wonderful and memorable visit I made to Monet's gardens in Giverny, this project now includes photographs I have taken in gardens in my own region of l'Occitanie, like the Bambouseraie in Anduze and friends’ cherished private spaces. As the project evolves, I am gradually pushing the boundaries towards greater abstraction and rhythmic mark-making, using my photographic studies of cut wood, flowers and bamboo, and eventually even maps of places from my childhood... my own secret garden.
Créé à l'origine suite à une visite merveilleuse et mémorable aux jardins de Monet à Giverny, ce projet comprend désormais des photographies que j'ai prises dans des jardins de ma propre région de l'Occitanie, comme la Bambouseraie à Anduze et les jardins chéris des amis du territoire. Au fur et à mesure que le projet évolue, je repousse progressivement les limites vers une plus grande abstraction et un marquage rythmique, en utilisant mes études photographiques du bois coupé, des fleurs et du bambou, et éventuellement même des cartes, points de repères des lieux de mon enfance ... mon propre jardin secret.
