LEO BERNE

Director of the Megaforce collective, Léo Berne is also a photographer, and above all a lover of film grain. Born in Aix-en-Provence in 1979, Léo is above all fond of the time lag imposed by the development of films which delays the moment of (re)discovery of images after that of the shooting. By mixing all types of films, moments, places, foreign and familiar, while inserting fragments of fantasy into pieces of reality, the photographer plays with our perception of his intimacy.

Taking photos “like a tourist,” Léo collects and sometimes stages moments from his personal life. His main goal is then to keep the memory of an ephemeral moment.

Léo's work was exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo in 2005, at the Galerie Nobilis Paris in 2010 and at the Galerie Écho 119 in 2016, on the occasion of the release of his first photo book For the Aliens .

Director of the Megaforce collective, Leo Berne is also a photographer, and above all a lover of the textured grain of film. Born in Aix-en-Provence in 1979, Leo is particularly fond of the lapse of time imposed by the development of film, which delays the moment of (re)discovery of the pictures. By mixing all types of film, different moments and places, unknown and familiar ones, and while inserting fragments of fantasy into pieces of reality, the photographer plays with our perception of his intimacy.
