Captured: labyrinths, corridors, spider webs, mud bubbles

Sometimes, at the end of a day of walking and photographing, one discovers that images that were not meant to be part of a thematic series and seemed to share only geographical and temporal proximity, belong together in a more profound way.

These four photos, when put together, seem to decline each its own definition of entrapment (physical, metaphorical). Capturing them photographically might have been a way of breaking the spell.

This might be a humble photographic echo to Pascal’s thought: “Par l’espace, l’univers me comprend et m’engloutit comme un point; par la pensée, je le comprends.”
