Pascal Dolémieux

From cultural photography to photojournalism and documentary photography, Pascal Dolémieux has explored all photographic genres.

At first, his black and white photos were a poetic reflection of reality. Pascal Dolémieux wanted to be neither judge nor witness.

Then he began to stage his productions, to the point of creating situations, playing with reality and adding something to the current world.
"Bergson once said that disorder is ultimately only an order that we did not want. In the same vein, I would say that reality is potentially a fiction like any other, of which we still do not really know who the author is, or even if there is one, and so I always have the pleasure of having the impression of inventing a story by taking a photograph. I have often been confronted with this paradox, this friendly opposition between reality and fiction. A photograph becomes, from the moment it is extracted, autonomous."
