O Fujisan!
It’s fall 2018, I’m on Lake Kawaguchiko and I’m waiting for it.
I feel his presence.
It’s a vibration that goes through me.
The clouds enter an endless dance around his Majesty.
Sometimes, we furtively imagine his celestial body but it immediately disappears into the vaporous immensity.
The place is magical and conducive to poetry.
Thought is sharpened by the vision of natural elements in fusion.
And one day, unexpectedly, Lake Kawaguchiko offers itself like a divine mirror to Mount Fuji which suddenly appears, adorned with its sublime white dress, in the sky of an immaculate blue.
It is a privilege that the Gods offer me.
But the King of Heaven, with a haughty about-face, disappears again in the nebulous mist.
Note on the series O Fujisan! »
This series has 9 images.
The number 9, in Japan, symbolizes the end of a cycle, the sign of disappearance for renewal.
The images are in negative to bring a mystical dimension as if they were projecting us into the memory of a vanished and eternal world.
The matte cotton fiber paper gives these images a poetic style that bears witness to the unique atmosphere of Mount Fuji.
Lake Kawaguchiko gives off wisps of evanescent mist that make up fleeting pictures of great beauty that I wanted to render through this photographic series.
The 9 photographs are printed in 3 copies 20×30 cm signed and delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
