“As much as the creation of visuals, what I found fascinating was the ‘preparation’. I mean, discovering discreet and secret collections, discovering these cars of yesteryear, having the chance to see them up close. Hundreds of times I’d passed in front of old hangars or barns that I imagined were empty or that I hadn’t even noticed. In the end, I discovered cars inside them that are worth thousands of euros, sometimes even up to a million. I was entrusted with the keys to these secrrets places and I was responsible for these vehicles. I was the guarantor of these cars that had traversed the ages. Between these walls, alongside these treasures, I felt as though time had been suspended. Each of my photographs is actually made up of several dozens of shots of details all put together in order to form an overall subject. By highlighting certain particularities, I’m trying to show you more than a simple car, a simple motor (...) to emphasise the very idea that we have of these cars, what they inspire for us.
