Accustomed to immersing himself in the wilderness, Jean de Pomereu has for over five years dedicated his photographic work solely to the discovery of the Antarctic. The landscapes stretch into infinity; like a blank canvas they are a source of inspiration from which Pomereu finds a basic simplicity, a primordial energy. A specialist in polar research, climate change and representing the Antarctic in a creative milieu, Pomereu leaves behind the cacophony of the world by concentrating on the endless white of the Antarctic. “Ideas of perspective related to the foreground or the background, have always of been of less interest to me than studying the effect of detail; nuances that multiply and divide into an intricate complexity that define the Antarctic landscape.”
