ABOUT THE ARTIST : Samuel Cornillet, born in 1974, is a French photographer. "Unlike some who work hard to become artists, I have become unintentional.

She insidiously took all my available time and it took me five years to realize that I had abandoned all my other artistic activities. " It is on the sidelines of high school from 1992, year of his first exhibition, he received a solid training provided by three professional photographers in activity. Then, over the years, in constant search of perfection, he will document and experiment with the characteristic bulimia that animates the passionate.
