France : Marseilles, the blue town

Page 1

Feature


If blue is the color of infinity, of distance, it is also the color of Provence which has always inspired our photographer-poet Camille Moirenc. Here, he offers us his vision of Marseille just as Yves Klein did.. A dream city that he portrays by successive strokes that reveal aspects of Marseilles as mesmerizing as they are amazing. Far more than a special invitation to travel there, it is an aesthetic experience ... A Feature from Camille MOIRENC for Hemis Text on request
