The poetic power of Eric Bourret's images, their way of "modulating the
visible" and to show, according to Merleau-Pont's expression, "the interlacing of
the invisible and the visible" prompted the Lodève museum to invite Eric Bourret to
to explore, echoing its collections, the landscapes from which the
fossils that compose them. There is in the work of this artist, an "astonishing
temporal conjunction between a nature several million years old
and a human who lives only a shortened moment" and this thanks to a device
photographic whose function is to precisely stop time." The book
Terres, offers a route made up of a selection of images from
of the residency carried out by the artist in Lodévonis and Larzac in 2018 and
2019, and older images (Cradle of Humankind, South Africa). A
photographic ephemeris which, by disintegrating the structure of the initial image,
creates another moving, sensitive reality.
