A sheep is seen in the middle of this photograph strolling through a snow-covered village in the dead of night. The flakes of snow are illuminated by the street lights. The animal gives the image presence, while the houses in the background appear to be deserted.
Christophe Jacrot finds in “bad weather” a visual resource that few exploit. He attempts to capture the subtle lighting and pictorial substance that is offered when the elements are in full rage. Through the lens, cities or landscapes reveal their fragile beauty and seem to enter into a battle creating powerful dramatic tension. Constantly on the lookout for the worst weather conditions, the artist observes and patiently waits until a story arises.

Christophe Jacrot
In his photographs, Christophe Jacrot attempts to capture the subtle lighting and pictorial substance that is offered when the elements are in full rage. The photographer finds in bad weather a visual resource that few exploit. Taken on the spot, no staging no tricks, Christophe Jacrot’s photos show the lesser-known side of Megacities transfigured by torrential rain or thick snow. Through the lens, these giant concrete and glass jungles reveal their fragile beauty. More recently, the photographer has been favouring more natural landscapes like Iceland which he captured covered with a thick layer of snow. His work has been published many times in the press: Beaux Arts Magazine, Fisheye, L’Express, Libération, LE JDD, Le Figaro Magazine... “I love the intensity there is in the drama of bad weather, snow and storm.’’

- AS FAR AS A VIEW - Folded Tapestry Collage of Scenic Landscapes w/ Palm TreesLocated in Signal Mountain, TNAS FAR AS A VIEW, is part of a series of works that consider the decorative and escapist role of the landscape in the home. When seeking beauty in the world to distract us, delight us, and bring us into our own world, we seek something that stirs within us a memory or a dream. Traditionally, tapestries are a storytelling media as well as décor. This particular work is constructed from commercially printed tapestries acquired from a Chinese supplier during the pandemic. These tell a story of arrested, yet ample, desire. On one side of the piece we see a sunrise from a beach with palm trees. Gently folded over to the right is a second tapestry. In this the artist has chose to expose the desaturated backside which obscures slightly the third tapestry landscape of beach scene around midday. It brings to mind the passage of time much like time lapse photography...Category
