Breithorn
La Traversée
About the work
I took this panoramic photograph of Breithorn as a hymn to their journey. summits unalterable in the face of immensity. The snow-covered winds have painted the peaks of the Valais into the night. On a bed of sublime, unreal mist, the mountains brandish their sharp points to conquer the sky. A vessel of rock and ice sailing on waves of light and shadow. Breithorn reign unchallenged over the world above.
I love the softness that nourishes this work. The deep contrasts that make this journey a dreamy odyssey. I love the vigorous momentum of the mountains, their willing curves and generous flanks. My crossing of the Breithorn is an unforgettable experience. And every year, I come to them to photograph them. To pay tribute to their majesty and share in their heritage.
