Je suis devenu un volcan
Reno Salvail
— Jérôme Delgado
Both artist’s book and retrospective monograph, Je suis devenu le volcan traces the photographic journey of Reno Salvail, from his first images in 1986 to his last in 2023, the year of his death. Despite its fragmented and chaotic structure—interweaving snippets of text and varied subjects—the book conveys the environmentalist artist’s quest. It is the geographical journeys and “creative adventures” that guide the reading, making the succession of a volcano, a petroglyph, or a constellation feel coherent.
