Whatever the topic they address, the photographs of Jean-Luc Meyssonnier use the same language: a sumptuous and rigorous dialectic between light and shadow. Between the deepest black and the purest white gradients are subtle. They are not intended to aim at the immediacy of the represented object, but define a projection for our doubts and fantasies. In the artist's eye everything is stone and everything becomes face. Everything is inhabited and empty but everything turns existing. It is of our duty to find out the real of these silent shapes evoking a strangely cold sensuality.
