Sunshine

There are things humans cannot force, and nature is one of those. However, some narratives are indeed made to be blended and reinterpreted by us. Given an input, poetry is to be found within one’s mind and our perspective. Sunshine gives us insights into how to feel and connect more deeply with all that surrounds us, including nature. the series explores the projection of how humans integrate nature into the artificial structure of our world, and at the same time, how we exclude it. It shows us how nature can slowly reinvest the corridors of human artifice.

Photographer

Sylvain Biard

Sylvain Biard is a French photographer based in Brussels, Belgium. He graduated in Paris, France, from the School of Photography and Audiovisual EFET in 2006. He started his career as a cameraman and freelance editor. Later, he found a way to diversify his professional activities by offering his services in institutional photography, too. It marked the author’s first approach to photography and documentary series.
Sylvain occupies the majority of his free time by thinking and carrying out personal photographic projects. Currently, he is a member of the French collective Fragment. The photo collective was born to promote a common culture through individual and group series drawn from street and documentary photography. Some times ago Sylvain took a step back from street photography but sill continues to work with the stream of immediacy, always trying to shape the unexpected. For the moment, he is working with analog and digital photography, mixing together 35mm and medium format for long term projects, particularly Paris Intérieurs, a set of series about his hometown.
