Born in 1983, Alexandre Dupeyron discovered photography at an early age in his improvised darkroom. He follows a poetic, purely evocative approach, associated with black and white and the representation of movement. Between dreamlike imagery and going off the beaten path, he travels to the edges of reality. His work seeks to translate the poetic, even spiritual, dimension of who we are and what surrounds us. His series thus develop a narrative between dehumanized worlds—De Anima (2016) & Runners of the Future (2010-2020), the relationship with nature—L’étale des saisons (2014) & Mondes Oubliés (2019-2020), and a recurring inquiry into transcendence—The Morning After (2016).

Since 2017, he has been exploring the dialogue between photography and music, regularly collaborating with musicians and electronic artists.

The various series that mark Alexandre Dupeyron’s artistic journey have come together today to form Dysnomia. This project is presented in three formats:

• A book
• A live projection, where he mixes his photographs in real-time with a sixty-minute musical composition written and performed by Thomas Julienne for his quintet “Theorem of Joy”
• An exhibition, where he reinterprets his black-and-white work in color using the multicolored, multi-layered gum bichromate process.
