Tuesday May 26, 2026

Dans le cadre de la 10e édition du Light Leaks Festival, nous avons eu le plaisir d’accueillir le photographe français Nicolas Portnoï, invité à présenter son projet « Carolofornie », consacré à la ville belge de Charleroi.Enregistré aux Rotondes, ce podcast propose une conversation entre Nicolas Portnoï et Paulo Lobo autour du développement de ce projet au long cours, de son approche de la photographie de rue et documentaire, ainsi que du regard sensible, poétique et souvent ironique qu’il porte sur la vie urbaine et les territoires populaires.À travers cet échange, Nicolas revient sur la création de « Carolofornie » et sur son exploration photographique de la mémoire industrielle, du quotidien et de l’atmosphère humaine de Charleroi.

Tuesday May 19, 2026

Dans ce podcast, Gabrielle Duplantier interviewée par Phil Deken, nous parle de sa carrière photographique, de ses influences parmi lesquelles son père artiste dessinateur, ses études d’histoire de l’art, Julia Margaret Cameron ( pionnière de la photographie poétique et mystérieuse dès les début de cet art ), ou encore de son amour de la peinture anglaise préraphaélite. Elle nous relate ses premières expérimentations ; elle nous décrit son approche de la photographie argentique qu’elle n’a jamais quittée, ses sujets d’inspiration favoris et ses pérégrinations de photographe au Pays Basque et à l’étranger, en repartant d’une page totalement blanche chaque fois qu’un livre est publié. Un témoignage intime à écouter pour mieux comprendre toute la profondeur de son travail et toute la sincérité de ses élans poétiques, sombres dans leur rendu mais lumineux dans leur humanité.
