Plus d’informations

As part of this year’s Leica Prize for New Environmental Photography, awarded to François Fontaine, his Eden series, shot in Japan, is being exhibited at the La Gacilly festival with the support of De l’Air magazine and in partnership with the VU’ agency.

For the last twenty years, François Fontaine has been producing chromatic series inspired by Eastern cultures. This time, he travelled across Japan from south to north, following the country’s spring flowering. From the city of Kagoshima, he travelled up the island of Kyūshū and then Honshū, as far as the sacred city of Nikkō, focusing on parks and gardens as much as shrines and places of pilgrimage, with the desire to transpose, in images, the emotions aroused by the spectacle of nature in full metamorphosis.

These photographs are an ode to travel, contemplation and wonder, in a very special form that is at once poetic, gentle and nostalgic.
