Bernard Benant was born in 1959 in Constantine, Algeria. Since he was 24 years old, he has been passionate about photography. We chose to show three series by him.

Bernard Benant “thinks of photography as a way of expression”, he “advocates eclecticism” he has said, and “cannot limit myself to a specific theme.” From fashion to music, he enjoys swaying from one genre to another, while seemingly having a clever yet fun time in twisting the codes and habits.
