For my series "Cabinet of Curiosities", I pushed open the doors of collectors, taxidermists, entomologists, Belgian collectors as well as those of the conservatories, closed to the public, of our Natural Science Museums and other collections to deliver images of atmospheres with the smell of naphthalene and arsenic.
Inspired by vanities, cabinets of curiosities and taxidermy, my photographs convey a personal and profound perception of a world populated by chimeras, colonial jewels, dragon's blood and unicorn horns.
This is a colour photograph of a fireplace displaying globes, Dr. Auzoux's pieces and other curiosities.
