BIOGRAPHY
Through each of his photographic adventures, Philippe Kerlo takes us on a journey inside the mystery of women...
... He seeks their unconscious in his series on psychoanalysis;
... He uncovers their wounds inspired by Gainsbourg’s words “bruises are the most beautiful jewels”;
... He shows their nude vulnerability in an art class setting.
Each of Philippe’s series tells a story of its own, whether it is the birth of a kiss, the fall of a medieval army, or the birth of an angel...
Philippe’s images shed light on his models whilst respecting the intimacy.
Elegance and sensuality are the essence of his photographic quest.
