Arnaud Bathiard

Born: 1973

Hometown: Lyon

Based in: Lyon

Born in 1973 in Burgundy, France, Arnaud Bathiard is a fine-art photographer specializing in black and white seascapes/waterscapes. Passionate about traveling, he has a predilection for austere landscapes he often treats in a minimalist vein, using long exposure technique - which undoubtedly corresponds to his contemplative mood. In a world largely dominated by noise, where everything goes a little too fast to his liking, he strives to cultivate a certain art of slowness and to give back a place to silence. His images thus only aspire to communicate a feeling of serenity to the viewer - this very feeling that he found, belatedly, in the photographic medium.
