La Garrigue
Minervois, France
2020-2022

Garrigue, a term used in southern France for open fields of wild vegetation, describes a landscape where nature reclaims and reshapes abandoned land.

In the Minervois, the garrigue unfolds as a subtle interplay of trees, shrubs, herbs, and resilient grasses, where light sculpts forms and textures. Vineyards long abandoned are reclaimed by nature but human presence is woven into this terrain: the vintner walking among his vines, laborers harvesting grapes, hands and feet tracing the rhythm of the land.

This series observes the dialogue between people and landscape, capturing the way human activity and wild nature coexist. The garrigue, at once familiar and mysterious, offers moments of adventure and revelation.
