The Abyssinian devotion
As part of a documentary reportage I started to photograph the Ethiopian Orthodox Church Ethiopian Orthodox Church. The first part of my work began essentially in the city of Lyon in which I livein which I live with a parenthesis of two weeks in Addis Abeba. The second part of my work.The second part of my work will concern several cities in France and Europe. Most of the time during the masses the rites are hidden. My approach has been to photograph the devotees during the masses, the preaching or during the moments of individual recollection.
