About the work
To produce this magnificent black and white photograph, I flew to meet the Eiger after the storm. When the mountain reappears at dawn, dressed in a sumptuous white coat. Piercing the clouds, it points skywards like a shark's fin rising from the waves. With this aerial view of the Eiger, I wanted to highlight the mountain from a different angle. A new point of view that reveals another facet of its personality. Powerful and sublime.
Carried by a sea of clouds straight out of a dream, the Eiger guides our gaze towards infinity. To a world where anything is possible again. Our minds drift away as the mist gradually detaches itself from its crest. Illuminated by the sun's first rays, new details appear on the rocks. New textures. Between light and shadow, perspectives are transformed and the photograph takes shape in three dimensions. The work is alive, nourished by the changing light and the breath of the wind. So that it can be reinterpreted again and again. Because every day is a new adventure. I experience photography as an introspective journey. Contemplating the Eiger at search . Venerable majesty, the mountain invites us to evolve. To give the best of ourselves to contribute to the flourishing of life and perpetuate the beauty of the world.
