Normand Rajotte
L’illusoire immobilité des forêts
— Marie-Josée Rousseau
Normand Rajotte’s photography bears witness to a relationship with the living world that calls for “slowing down and relearning how to see,” observes Marie-Josée Rousseau in her review of an exhibition held at Espace DÈS. Created without manipulation, the images taken in the forest capture what comes before the artist’s eyes, whether light phenomena or organic arrangements at the limits of reality. A detail can reveal subtle transformations in which death and life coexist. The exhibition moved away from an idealized world and brought viewers back to “something fundamental […] a real nature – patient, autonomous.”
