Their last meeting dates back to March 2007 in the ski resort Tsaghkadzor and Armenia in September of that year, in Batumi, Georgia. .
Strangely! I had a very chaotic school career, I had no vocation. I was born in Paris suburbs, a family of Armenian genocide survivor. In 1989, when there was a huge earthquake there, I wanted to be helpful and I am committed to a humanitarian association. It was the first time I went to Armenia. I was taking pictures when I had a little time. After a year I came home and I have developed some. Then comes the strange chance encounters, an editor loved them and made a book. Robert Doisneau liked the book and helped me to make a second for the Restos du Coeur. Since I am a photographer. On one hand, I am a craftsman who responds to commands by reporting to the press. On the other hand, I am an artist in a personal quest that follows in the footsteps of the Armenians.
These are all Armenians. I have traveled many miles in the Middle East on the trace of this people, my people. These are children, men and women of today who are the memory of this country and its culture. His images were taken at 5000 km from France but I hope they are universal. When someone told me she saw in my photos is the best compliment one can give me. This means that emotion is transmitted. I acknowledge that I have no distance with the subjects I treat.
