Josef Hoflehner - Season #2Zen, c’est le mot qui vient à l’esprit quand on se plonge dans l’univers du photographe Josef Hoflehner. Ses paysages sont à l’image de l’homme qu’il est : timide, silencieux, posé. Rien d’étonnant alors que sa technique de prédilection soit la longue exposition. Une technique qui oblige à prendre son temps, à comprendre les saisons, la lumière, le vent, le mouvement des n… more

Hiroshi Watanabe "American Leitmotiv"

"I go to places that captivate and intrigue me. I am interested in what humans do. I seek to capture people, traditions, and locales that first and foremost are of personal interest. I immerse myself with information on the places prior to leaving, but I try to avoid firm, preconceived ideas. I strive for both calculation and discovery in my work, keeping my mind open for surprises. At times, I envision images I'd like to capture, but when I actually look t… more
