Description

summits This panoramic photograph shows theEiger, the Mönch and the Jungfrau, three mythical mountains of the region of Grindelwald in the bernese alps, in Switzerland. First ramparts of the stormy waves coming from the north, they are often put to the test by the elements.

I made this work in the middle of winter, while the last storm was raging. The clouds and the wind were still very present around summits. I named it Castle in the Sky because the mountain emerges from a sea of clouds like a monumental fortress dominating the world to reach the stars. I love the atmosphere that emerges from this celestial painting. The moment is rare and all the more moving. This is one of my favorite works.

In photographing this exceptional panorama, I wanted to convey the power and grandeur of these fabulous Alpine summits while ensuring the softness of the contrasts. The more the years go by, the more I try to combine strength and delicacy. The challenge is great, but I believe that this is what makes the beauty of the work. To highlight the unchanging splendor of the high mountains while respecting their profound nature.
