SOME WORDS FROM EGS

"Whether it seduces you, shocks you, transports you, or disgusts you, a photo that arouses an emotion, a reaction, an agreement or a rejection, is a 'good' photo.

'Bad' photos are therefore rare, because there will always be someone somewhere for whom this photo that you find 'bad' will evoke something that escapes us."

"I like my photos to tell stories.
Its own and true story, the one I imagined, and the extended one that you will imagine.

'Telling stories' is not lying: it is opening the door to new perspectives, it is offering an alternative reality that could sometimes be the real one."

TESTIMONY

"I really like your work, both the shape and the colors. 
The series made in Hong Kong is really very beautiful. 
I like the rich perspectives, skilfully composed, interwoven, hollowed out, and the subtle and deep tones depending on the lighting (particularly those at night, but not only): you have a real sense of color and light (banality! but I am very sensitive to it). 
The atmosphere of your photos reflects a sharp look and a a little fragile sensitivity, of great poetry. Something between the rationality of the construction and the escape through the senses. This is as true of urban landscapes as of always sensual bodies. 
Congratulations also for the commission made for the dance company; we are closer to the bodies made of tense muscles (we readily imagine them suffering) and at the same time we feel like them carried in space with happiness. 
Always the lightness, presence of the touch and soft evanescence) ."
