Muriel Pénicaud explores a unique form of visual storytelling, where each image tells a story and captures emotion with remarkable precision. Her sensitive eye embraces both natural landscapes and urban scenes, as well as the human condition, with a particular focus on women. Her photographs capture the poetry of the moment, whether fleeting like the flight of a bird or timeless like the majesty of trees. Through her work, she tackles powerful themes such as freedom, resilience and hope, inviting us to reflect deeply. Muriel Pénicaud develops and presents surprising, intimate and contemplative stories in images, based on a different relationship to the world, at the crossroads of a form of universalism and a poetic quest for origins.
" Photography is my way of taming the world, sharing my disbelief, distancing violence and igniting wonder. My desire is for each viewer to become the narrator of their own story, projecting their dreams, fears and imaginations." Muriel Pénicaud
With an introduction by photographer, author and philanthropist REZA and author and curator Rachel Deghati, and a foreword by artistic director Maria Cristina Madau.
