Pierre Canaguier

Commissioned by the “Centre chorégraphique national of Grenoble” (Jean-Claude Gallotta)

When I photograph people, I try to establish a feeling of proximity and capture the moments where gestures, bodies and contact take form in the objective. For this, I am present in a way that allows people to totally forget my camera.
In this project, I followed the creative process of Jean-Claude Gallotta and his dancers during the preparation of their latest work.
A mutual process that took form in the energy of the dancers, their gestures and movements nourishing my photographs and my photographs revealing concealed visual aspects that enhanced their creativity.
