“What is photography for you?”
Photography is practiced with all kinds of visions, means, philosophies. Everyone has their own reasons for doing it and their personal way of practicing it, to communicate their impressions, their language, their vibrations, if I dare say … a word of my generation.
I wondered what a lot of friends would say – photographer friends from different generations to the simple question: “What is photography for you? ”
As a result, the exhibition project in Tourcoing has become this reality and, by mixing the very varied styles and visions, perhaps we will have a broader idea of why, how … These responses becoming sesames of this need that we all have to see and so understand and love to share what we say in pictures.
I hope this exhibition will please by its variety of answers.
