Henri Durand

After my University degree, I decided to opt for a “freelance way of life”. So for the past 60 years, I’ve been an architect, a photographer, a builder, and an extreme Mac user, but always on my own terms, never attracted by the beaten tracks.

In my youth, I followed the normal classical Latin and Greek studies. Afterwards, I obtained a university degree in architecture. The rest was all self-taught : extensive photography knowledge as well as deep computer imaging experience.

Only one, in the 1970s : a one-man exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada, which traveled across the country for 3 years. After that, my preference to stay away from all social mirrors took over. It was time for me to focus all of my personal culture into my works. And for that, I needed the essence of peacefulness of mind.
