JONATHAN PASQUE

BIOGRAPHY

Born in Normandy, Jonathan Pasqué is a photographer fascinated by remote countries and threatened populations. He explains the choice of his destinations with an approach contrary to that of a tourist, favouring remote lands that are hard to access, or even those with a bad reputation. His love of travel and encounters, gazes that speak volumes about the soul, oriented him towards portraiture from his early days of photography, when he was still a graphic design student in Paris. Since then, Jonathan Pasqué has roamed the farthest reaches of the world at the slightest opportunity, in order to capture images of immeasurable cultural and human wealth. Laos, Cambodia, Guatemala, Belize, North India, Ladakh, Iraq, Iran, North Korea... He has visited over 50 countries, in search of the most attractive aspects of humanity, in order to preserve memories, through the prism of his lens, like indelible imprints on paper. “The eyes are the mirrors of the soul. It isn’t landscape that allows you to understand a country, it’s the discussions, the encounters, and gazes also speak volumes.”  ... See more See less
