Une étrange rencontre

2020

"Certains lieux laissés à l’abandon suscitent parfois un certain intérêt dans notre imaginaire. Notamment pour ce qu’ils peuvent charrier de mystères. Ils nous intriguent, excitent notre curiosité. Comme s’ils avaient encore quelque chose à nous dire d’eux. À nous dire de nous. Chargés d’un passé aujourd’hui devenu leur présent, de singulières atmosphères règnent en de tels endroits et nous enjoignent parfois à y pénétrer avec prudence, s’offrant ainsi à quelque visiteur opportun."

At the edge of the semi-arid lands of New Mexico lies the White Sands desert, a set of dunes made of a rather unusual white sand since it is gypsum, which is why it was so light. Its particularity is to be the largest desert of this type in the world. In the distance, above the San Andres Mountains, several storms form and begin to overflow onto the surrounding plain. Usually very dry, the area receives little rainfall all year round. As the wind rises...

A resolutely minimalist and suggestive approach to get to the essential. Not trying to show a subject for what it is, but for what it expresses. This is my way of telling stories, of translating my sensibility”. J-M. Lenoir A passion for nature from an early age led Lenoir to photography as a means to capture magical moments of nature and wildlife. Starting with wildlife and wide spaces, he developed his own vision of photography. Landscape photography is an eternal quest for atmosphere where the light and the quest of beauty are key references, his aesthetic landmark. His photographic intention relies on his magnetic attraction for wide spaces combined with his quest of beautiful lights. A way that inspires him and his instinct of freedom. In photography, he is looking for simple pictures, which go straight to the subject core, with very few things in the frame. Lenoir follows a suggestive approach: he does not try to show a subject as it is, but to share what it expresses. It is his way of telling stories and conveying his sensibility, like his work “Evanescence”. Combining his passion for pictures with rugged landscapes, he organizes and guides photo tours with Photographes du Monde agency for seven years. From north of Europe (Scotland, Norway, Finland) to South America (Chile and Bolivia),his photographic world leads him into areas of wilderness from where he draws his main source of inspiration. Lenoir is an ambassador for Fujifilm cameras...
