The Journey Of Asterion
For four months, I followed a fighting bull until his death in the arena. Through photographs and his imagined diary, The Journey of Asterion tells the last days of an animal raised for one purpose: to die in the ring.
Beyond Sighs And Shadows
Are there still Indians in Camargue ? Buffalo Bill’s show turned this land into a Western stage. I track these elusive ghosts, navigating between myths, archives, and unexpected encounters, on a detective-like quest where fiction quietly invades reality.
