Dockers of Rouen
This work was carried out following my encounters with the dockers of Rouen during the numerous demonstrations against the pension reform, for which I covered the events from January to May.
Following these encounters, I wanted to go and photograph them in their professional environment.
The Local Union of the CGT of Rouen allowed me to access the sites closed to the public and thus translate the atmosphere of a very particular universe.
From this work, an exhibition was born, which is presented during the Armada 2023 at the Maison CGT in Rouen from June 8 to 18.
