Auguste Perret Photography 30x45cm 2020 "For Florent Michel, photography is first and foremost a story of transmission, a passion left as a legacy by his father. He remembers the hours spent, immersed in the red light of the family laboratory, watching the images reveal themselves in the "luminata" tray. The magic works, and it is at fifteen years old, with his first camera in hand, that he experiments with photography. Today, he is the photographer of the agency 11h45 where he continues his commission work in parallel with personal work through which he satisfies his attachment to the old techniques and the history of photography. Resolutely plastic and systematic, his work is a spatial exploration, sometimes haunted by a human presence to make it a creative signature. "I'm not a studio photographer, I need the living, the relationship with the human, to find a creative space in each of my subjects. "Karine Guilbert He has notably worked with BIG, Renzo Piano, Kengo Kuma, Gilles Perraudin, Reiulf Ramstad, Le Monde, and the Bourse de Commerce.
