Presentation

A dreamlike immersion in the nightlife of regional nature reserves
When daylight fades and humans retreat, a mysterious dance takes place in the heart of the Île-de-France's natural spaces. In these areas of refuge surrounded by urbanisation, animal life is secretly at work. Unexpected silhouettes stand out in the headlights; phantasmal shadows appear, feeding, drinking or hunting in the moonlight. When they wake up in the morning, only a few discreet traces bear witness to their furtive passages.

This open-air exhibition presents some fifteen photographs captured on the spot by photographer Nicolas Davy. In the chiaroscuro of dusk, it captures a dreamlike interlude in which wild nature converses with the silence of the city...
