Horizonto n°1 : Mimizan beach, Atlantic coast, France Format : video loop, 1920x1080 pixels, 41 seconds
Horizonto consists of horizons filmed from inside a motor home. The camera is installed in the panoramic window above the driving space, in the hood. This viewpoint - facing the road - becomes my lens, the vehicle my camera. In May 2021, I set off to film the horizons of the Atlantic coast, from Hendaye to the Pointe de Grave, in France I systematically take all the roads leading to the coast. One cul-de-sac after another, one way, parking gates, sand, sun, rain, seafront, private property and military terrain. Most of the time you have to disobey to get to the horizon. When I get to the sea, as close as possible, I let the camera roll and then take a photograph. In Esperanto, the horizon is called horizonto.
