Abstractions in Granite

 

      The pink granite quarry of La Clarté, in Ploumanac'h, French Brittany, is the only one still in operation in France, as its rock is of exceptional finesse. To capture these superb abstract tableaux created by nature, I highlighted the graphic qualities of this granite, its subtle shades and its intricate textures. Only chromogenic film photography can faithfully reproduce these rich and warm hues of yellow, orange, and terra-cotta. These colors blend harmoniously with the warm tones of an interior, adding depth and accentuating nuances. When juxtaposed with complementary colors like blue or green, they create a chromatic depth that enhances any décor.
