Dominique JAUSSEIN, artist, photographer
Born in Nice in 1954 and an engineer by training, he is not a man insensitive to beauty, but above all to this inner beauty, this music of the soul that makes authenticity. His encounter with the tribes of Omo in Ethiopia, his landscapes of the Antarctic continent and his animals from South Africa are an elegy to a world that is disappearing. His series "Ebony and Abyss" in Black and White, on Resilience, exhibited in New York in 2013, the Darkroom Gallery in 2014 and the Mark Hachem Gallery in Beirut in 2015 is undoubtedly another highlight of his work. His approach and capture of light, which he learned at Harcourt Studios in
Paris, is a signature. He likes to say that the only real journey is the one we do in ourselves. Being the official photographer of
the Nice Opera allows him to continue this inner journey ... Passionate, he created in 2014 with his wife, a gallery dedicated to art photography in Nice, the Darkroom Gallery. In constant search of creative glances, the gallery proposes through its temporary exhibitions, a selection of photographs in limited editions. Dominique Jaussein proposes here her last two series. "Signature
Gestuelle", a different look on the Dance, which is his own, a work on the body signature of the dancer, essential to the Choreographic Art, and his latest series on "Maikos", great artists to beauty delicate and mysterious in the service of a modern Japan,
faithful to its secular traditions.
