Raphaël Dautigny a commencé la photographie de manière autodidacte. Passionné de photo, il apprend seul la technique avec un appareil argentique et intègre rapidement un collectif de photographes, “Luce“.

Puis il voyage et entreprend quelques séries proches du reportage. Il chasse inlassablement la belle image. Le paysage l’inspire et l’esthétique prime, mais l’homme tient toujours une place centrale dans ses photographies.

Féru de photographie américaine, il développe un véritable talent de coloriste, dans la droite lignée d’un Stephen Shore ou d’un William Eggleston, qu’il admire.

Il aime les contraintes de l’argentique et travaille toujours aujourd’hui avec un Hasselblad moyen format. Ne pas voir immédiatement le résultat de la prise de vue est une composante de sa démarche. C’est d’abord oublier sa photo pour ensuite la redécouvrir, avec une certaine idée du temps nécessaire à l’accomplissement d’une image.

En 2006, en quête d’espace et de recul par rapport à son sujet, il débute cette série sur le surf qu’il ne quittera plus, allant jusqu’à parler lui-même de relation amoureuse, d’obsession du sujet. «C’est la série que je pourrais poursuivre à vie». Il a su trouver son écriture dans ce cadre partagé entre ciel et mer, où ni l’homme ni le paysage n’est tout à fait le sujet, mais l’unité qui en résulte.

Aujourd’hui, Raphaël Dautigny voyage à travers le monde à la rencontre de ces hommes aquatiques dans leur élément, et traite ce sujet non pas de manière grandiloquente montrant la puissance de l’eau sur l’homme, mais toujours avec distance, pour que nous parvienne seulement cet état de symbiose. Il évite l’écueil de la ritournelle dans un décor où l’épure est de mise, en composant avec la lumière naturelle, et surprend le spectateur par la multitude de scénettes qu’il lui livre comme autant de nouvelles histoires.

SpeedSleev Review – Bike World News

It’s inevitable, you are going to get a flat out there. Unless you are racing, you probably ride with at least a tube, a CO2, and tire levers.

The Shadow Campaign // Whitewash on Vimeo

Midway through a dry season, with scraggly trees, icy slopes, and hardly any base, Mount Baker suddenly finds itself consumed by the chaos of the year’ biggest storm– unleashing several feet of snow every night for ten straight days. Plows work around the clock to keep order, but still the ditches fill with battered cars fallen victim to the heavy drifts. As the snow tirelessly buries the mountain, and the warmth and color of the sun become distant memories, the DPS crew reaches the top to find themselves cradled in a monochromatic powder paradise, everything washed away in a rapture of white.

The Shadow Campaign: 4 Short Films, Coming Fall 2014.

ARCTIC SILVER – Le Mouching

As if everything we’d do by the river was slow motion, as if all that we feel was bigger than it is, as if the pleasure we have was endless, as if the days were longer, as if we would get much more from fly fishing, that’s what this film makes me feel. Fishing always … Lire la suite
