Photographer, author and mountain guide, I visit the gaps between two steps, my eyes open to the world. I remember my first photo taken on a Sunday morning when I was 7 years old. The road was deserted and the sun was dazzling on the damp asphalt. I remember wondering whether I should set my Instamatic to sun or cloud. Since then, my technical practice has evolved, but I still pursue that little glimmer of light that means images are always possible. From the Alps, in addition to my mountain framing and photojournalism, I pursue an artistic practice that shifts the viewer's perception by staging images in natural or urban landscapes. I try to question our place in this world through a return to the dreamlike. For further information: www.alain-douce.com / www.instants-sensibles.com
