Stéphane MAHE, 1968
Stéphane Mahé's intimate, painterly photographic work reveals an inner journey both outside time and space.
Unveiled in 2018, his Somewhere series unfolds a powerful dreamlike, cinematic universe where wandering appears as a photographic quest. Today, Mood opens a new chapter when the real becomes surreal - he opens the door onto a dirt track that emerged from a painting that used to hang in the middle of the family living room, and sets off, guided by instinct, in search of emotions, in search of those precious, unique, brief, ephemeral moments.
This full availability to what surrounds him, to harmony, is then defined as his photographic time. Mood is a witness to these furtive opportunities, giving them an air of eternity. Mood as a universal experience, in which emotion is a common language, a kind of Esperanto composed of timeless, mysterious and dreamlike scenes, independent of one another yet belonging to a coherent whole that soothes and poetizes our souls; a parenthesis that opens and closes, offering renewed emotions with each new visit. From Somewhere to Mood: Brittany remains his main photographic playground.
