About by Jean Yves Juguet
Catch the eye...
Travel is life! His journeys to the four corners of the world are above all encounters with peoples, ethnic groups, cultures. A wealth that never ceases to push Jean-Yves Juguet, photographer, to travel the world with his backpack. These are roots trips, the antithesis of four-star hotels, well-hung backpack and nights in tents. A way of life compatible with encounters, exchanges, discovery. Since January 2015, this man for his talent to capture glances and moments of life, proposes an exhibition “Regards du Monde”, a series of portraits of men and women living in lands unknown to the general public.
Peoples of the end of the world...
We can only be seized, and the exhibition is aptly named, by their eyes oscillating between joy, sadness, bitterness, uncertainty. All accepted after the meeting with this photographer from the end of the world that their face be captured by the lens. Ethiopia, Namibia, Himalayas… The photographer has also gone on the trail of the roots of the gypsy people in India.
We observe the diversity of beings, their enriching difference. Peoples with clean faces as in Buddhist temples, Africa and their traditional painting, Hindu and its orange hues… one of the photos presented during this exhibition was also selected by National Geographic France.
