Nick Meek was very influenced by the North of England from where he hails: &ldquo;I was born in the North of England where it can be quite grey and the summers are quite short. I think this had a huge effect on me as a human being&hellip; It made me hungry for warmth and colour and, I suppose, adventure. It made me want to explore the world and that I think my photographs show&hellip; more than anything else a world that is full of light&ldquo;. The USA, known for its breath-taking scenery, the excessiveness of the settings you&rsquo;re always surrounded with attracted Nick Meek. Travels through huge spaces, automobiles, nature and architecture attract his photographic eye that translates into an always enchanted gaze.

Nick specifically chose the United States to fill up on pictures. The USA, known for its breath-taking scenery, the excessiveness of the settings you&rsquo;re always surrounded with. Meek sets in a feeling of contemplative distance but also the sensation of being thrown into the picture thanks to sculptural sets. Almighty nature and the four-wheeled beasts created by the automobile industry: territories and industries in perfect symbiosis. The power of deserted areas only amplified as potential development areas for US super cities. Emptiness and urban development, brought together by one visual transmission force

Denis Boulze passionnate with photography in his early years, he worked at Rouchon studio as first assistant with respected photographers like Sarah Moon, Jan Walter, Sofia and Mauro. He also directs films. His personal creation adopts alternatively both color and black&amp;white to interpret fashion series and still life, always obviously driven by a certain sense of poetry. A long term project based on his family portraits in their summer family house is about to be published, always with his very specific signature of softness and intemporality in his image. Analog photography suits to the sense of intimacy with his subjects that Denis obviously seeks and nurishes. He also collaborates with magazines such as Milk, Air France Magazine, D&eacute;dicate and for brands in photography and films like Weston with the art director Olivier Saillard.

Denis Boulze was born in France.&nbsp; After a BAC pro in photography, he worked at Rouchon studio as assistant for three years during which he worked as first assistant with photographers like Sarah Moon, Jan Walter, Eric Guillemain or Sofia and Mauro. He works in parallel on his personal development first by making portraits of young people of his generation in the studio, then outside, exploring other universes, from still life to fashion photography, to his&nbsp; family portrait on vacation, always of a great poetry. He also collaborates with magazines such as Air France Magazine, D&eacute;dicate, Tracks.
&nbsp;
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m looking for a balance between a certain softness and the picture&rsquo;s intensity. For both fashion photography and portraits, the person I&rsquo;m shooting is the central point of focus, and by working on the light, I bring them to a space capturing a state of dreaming and melancholy.&nbsp;I mostly work in monochrome or black and white, as this enables me to go straight to the heart of the matter and convey a rawer form of photography. Hands often occupy a significant place in my work, and I regularly treat them as full-fledged subjects, halfway between still lifes and portraits.&rdquo;

Our entire life and consumption environment transformed through typographic, sculptural and architectural jousts. Chris &ldquo;formalises&rdquo; our society &ndash; always with a touch of humour &ndash; by making objects and structures out of fonts, by blasting punchlines, words and letters in an upward dynamic. Although he&rsquo;s not rewriting the alphabet, he uses each one of its 26 elements amidst a high-impact aesthetic, emphasising the style and content relationship. Words become urban epicentres, daily objects, and totem-like structures overlooking men. Monumental mash-ups defined by their colours, energy and humour.

Christian Kleemann, set designer and prop stylist, has an innovative talent for balancing the knowledge of art with the complex demands of advertising and media. He can make things shine. His sharp intellect is refined through studied and practiced skills, making him a master of the still-life - daringly modernized, elegantly stylized. His language - the unexpected arrangement, the subtle balancing of colors and shapes and the application of objects - deepens the seductive stimulus for a lasting impression. Here a pinch of humor, there an illuminating counterpoint - a question that contains the answer.

Germany
&nbsp;
Christian Kleemann is convinced ideas matter more than means, hence making his more &ldquo;modest&rdquo; projects as good as his big budget commission work. His approach to all the challenges he&rsquo;s presented with is to create fascinating proposals, with a very keen directing eye, and a general knack for making something out of nothing. &ldquo;Making abundance look pretty&rdquo; could be a motto for this generous and deft stylist, set designer and &ldquo;digger&rdquo;. Once his objects become models of sorts to present clothing, you expect nothing less than pure class. His take on his art is neoclassical, as such, he respects still life in its noblest form and likes to give it a modern twist, setting it in a daily and energetic environment. He is one of the very few capable of mastering the extremely subtle association of style and arrangement of inanimate elements.

Paul &amp; Henriette met at the the National school ENSP &nbsp;in Arles where they studied photography. In their studio, created in Paris in 2012, they imagine photographs, books, installations. Adepts of minimalism, shapes and colors, they constantly try, in compositions of an apparent simplicity to hatch a mixed sense of strangeness, game and a vibrant sensuality.

Exploring the ludic world of photography, she &nbsp;brings less rational qualities to her photographs in using paintings textures and materials. The Brazilian art movements: &ldquo;Neo-Concrete&rdquo; and the &ldquo;Tropicalia&rdquo; have been two consistent source of inspiration on Alice&rsquo;s practice. She has in her curriculum a number of awards, special projects invitations and residency programs, including the renowned Foam Talent Prize in Amsterdam.

Alice got her MFA from Pratt Institute in 2009 and she was selected as one of PS122 Exhibition Prize winners during that same year.

Alice has created special projects for brands like Herm&egrave;s, Air France, Red Bull, Samsung, Premi&egrave;re Vision, Unseen and Music from Memory.
&nbsp;
Alice Quaresma has been experimenting with materials that allow her photographs to be sensorial and playful, pushing the boundaries of photography as a flat surface. As the same time, her work explores the physical aspects of photography, she continues to use images from her personal photo archive to elaborate on the idea of displacement and identity. She uses her fascination for the ocean as a departing point to explore an imaginary world inspired by her journey as an immigrant. Alice explores the ludic world of photography experimenting with possibilities within images and other materials, bringing less rational qualities to her photographs. The Brazilian art movements: &ldquo;Neo-Concrete&rdquo; and the &ldquo;Tropicalia&rdquo; have been two consistent source of inspiration on Alice&rsquo;s practice. As she progresses on her studio practice, she continues to work over her photographs in various ways making the marks and use of material more present. She is curious to provoke questions into the viewer, when they look at the work not everything is given to them. The decision of working with geometry over the photographs is crucial for Alice&rsquo;s practice as geometry forms don&rsquo;t describe a definitive idea but introduce suggestive possibilities into the work.

If the plastic photo reportage exists, the Franco-English Aur&eacute;lien Chauvaud is surely one of those who know to honor it. When the social and human context specific to each subject is at the heart of the image, an interest in places and people is revealed through a strong aesthetic proposition. The place sometimes takes the upper hand over the individual, but never one goes without the other, and it is ultimately artistic documentaries that Aur&eacute;lien Chauvaud brings back from his various expeditions.
Also author of editorial portraits, he applies the same degree of reading to anonymous as well-known subjects, isolating the individual and his environment to make them the exclusive subject of his work. He collaborates regularly with AD and Milk magazines and in 2020 publishes on behalf of the author L.A Ments, a magazine - city portrait - produced in Los Angeles. Aur&eacute;lien won twice in 2020 for his campaigns "Les orphelins d&acute;Auteuil" and "Mac Do" an IPA Awards as well as to the artistic directors club.

Visual arts photo coverage may be a relatively new art form, but Parisian photographer Aur&eacute;lien Chauvaud is definitely one of the most capable of honouring it with style. When each subject&rsquo;s own social and human context is at the very heart of the picture, an interest in places and people takes form, and is translated into an understated aesthetic proposal. Places sometimes take precedence over the subject, but you&rsquo;ll never get one without the other. In the end, Aur&eacute;lien Chauvaud always comes back from his various indoor and outdoor expeditions with artistic documentaries. The former assistant photographer who learned about the photographic process in the UK, also shoots editorial portraits: anonymous or famous subjects to whom he applies the same process, stripping them away from their environment to make each person the sole focus of his works.

Franco-Irish duo composed of an artistic director and a photographer, initially noticed for bringing a unique vision to the kids and adolescents photography, Nick and Chlo&eacute; then explored the strangeness of an adult world and there mix a prolific imagination. Their images, rich in details, invite us to observe everything: staging and sense of the character in space served by a color work of great finesse form a style specific to the duo, dreamlike storyteller and player. Exhibited in 2019 at the Magasins G&eacute;n&eacute;raux for the "Futures of Love" exhibition, they also make personal and advertising films.

&nbsp;
French artistic director Chlo&eacute; Claverie was born in 1980, Irish photographer Nick West ten years before that. Since 2005, the pair has created photographs and films, passing on their very accurate vision of their era and placing portraits at the heart of scenarios. They especially gathered attention for breathing a new life into childhood photography, and enjoy putting a twist in the way they stage their pictures, slowly leaving the world of children&rsquo;s fairy tales behind, to take interest in the strangeness of an imaginary adult world. Beyond the first impression, their pictures are an open invitation to re-discover their identity, and take in every detail, from the staging, to the set design, colours and style. Already almost cinematic shots, Nick &amp; Chlo&eacute;&rsquo;s photos have naturally drawn them to filmmaking. An undertaking they&rsquo;ve taken on with the same drive and enthusiasm.
