"I believe in the forest, and in the meadow, and in the night in which the corn grows." H. D. Thoreau
Walking in a French forest in the company of a friend, I came across a tree with the body of a woman and the head of a lynx.
It's just one of the most evident signs of an energy that flows, grows, regenerates itself.
Considering nature as something alive and pulsating, wild and imposing: this is the thought behind this series of images.
Man is insignificant, afraid, weak, disarmed in the face of Nature.
When he's afraid he closes himself in the house, his lair, like any other animal.
Lynx is an invitation to get lost in nature with courage, among the lairs of other animals, in search of your own lynx.
