My Fantastic Americans

This series of portrait is a personal project I started since I moved in the USA in 2015. I wanted to picture the USA when I arrived, especially in Austin, TX where this city is growing and changing at an amazing speed. What amazed me the most in this project is the variety of people and originality I found across the country.

Photographer

Eloi Du Bois

Eloi Du Bois, raised in France living in Austin, TX, started making art by producing short films, one, « Bohem, Bohem… » being shown at Cannes Short Film Corner in 2014. In parallel of this formative activity, he worked on photography which became a passion that lead him to participate in workshops; the first one about portraiture with Richard Dumas in 2012 and this last one about photography visual story telling with Ed Kashi. Humans are an enigma, mysterious and unique. What Eloi likes in photography is capturing the unexpected, how Humans exteriorize their personality, how do their personality influence where they live, and the story that we can then develop from this.
