Description
The elevation of a façade drawn by an architect often bears
little resemblance to what we see once the building is
completed. The inevitable distortions of perspective are not all. The house may be hidden behind dense vegetation or situated in a narrow street. It may have been
altered, greatly deteriorated or even abandoned. It is up to me to find a way to photograph it
bit by bit and to
reassemble the pieces like a jig-saw puzzle in order to recreate the elevation of the building before it was born. These
buildings deprived of environment and perspective acquire a mathematical purity
revealing the human touch by contrast.
