Paysages Limitrophes was created as part of Arpenter, photographier la Nouvelle-Aquitaine, a regional photographic commission initiated by the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Regional Council. The project traces my journey across the region, from La Rochelle to Biarritz, exploring how landscapes are seen, remembered, and shaped by movement. Engaging with psychogeography, I photographed what caught my attention along the way—signs, light, colors—while navigating a sense of both familiarity and estrangement. A recurring motif of visual obstructions—walls, barriers, burned-out trucks, billboards—suggests the presence of invisible thresholds, reinforcing the tension between seeing and unseeing, access and limitation.
