Series statement
The theme of this photographic series called "Spirit in the Night" is the urban landscape of the city of Montreal. In this work, I was interested in how the light sculpts the city at night, choosing these places based on the quality of their strangeness, which sublimate the banal to give them a new character. Faced with the reality of the routine and the loss of the sense of discovery, the journey continues through walking and photography, where at night I rediscover my city.
