Exhibition Colombe Clier, heritage photographer

Come and discover the "Colombe Clier, photographe du patrimoine" exhibition at the Chateau of Bussy-Rabutin.

The exhibition features a selection of a dozen photographs taken by Colombe Clier at monuments belonging to the Centre des monuments nationaux. Through her eyes, the photographer reveals the singular beauty of emblematic sites such as Carcassonne, Mont-Saint-Michel, Talcy and Rambouillet. An invitation to rediscover the richness of France's heritage through the eyes of a contemporary photographer.

Colombe Clier was born in Rouen in 1982.

She graduated from the École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie d'Arles in 2006. Her photographic and video work is characterised by this gaze, capturing a different temporality, one of immobility, restraint and silence. When the fixity of the subject produces the sensation of the passage of time. The resulting immobility , barely disturbed by the viewer's gaze, succeeds, as Marguerite Duras put it, in "rendering silence. A living, rich silence. Like something that could have been heard.

She now works in the world of culture, heritage, the arts and luxury, and regularly collaborates with houses, decorators, scenographers, designers, artists, architects, magazines and cultural institutions.

His work on heritage is distributed by the image department of the Centre des monuments nationaux.
