I began photography when a teenager and for a long time it remained a hobby for me. I was shooting landscapes, people, girlfriends... without any real message.
Then my professional life maintained me away from this activity for years and my lab material mildewed under dust.

Digital technologies, bringing capability to have a full lab in a laptop were a real salvation to me. Now I spend most of my time building pictures, shooting and processing them.

The idea in theses galleries is to show that the bare human body is not erotic in itself. Naked woman is more a graphical figure than a sensual one. Erotism is not a son of nudity but comes from suggestion, clothes, attitudes.
