Photographer Jean-François Spricigo chases the horizon whenever he can, has an unconditional love for nature and animals and cannot reconcile himself with the fickleness of the species to which he belongs: “I take photographs for the same reason a bird beats its wings – so it doesn’t fall down”. His exhibition toujours l’aurore takes on several different forms, a kaleidoscope within the same gaze, making clear the fragmentary nature of any creative pursuit. This aesthetic is borne from honesty, an admission of his need when faced with reality to be himself, and yet to live this reality to the full through oneself: “I have never sought to capture or frame the world around me, he continues. On the contrary, it’s the pulsation of the moment that motivates me. Whether in focus or not, the ‘clarity’ of an image is principally linked to the full scope of its process.” (http://www.loeildelaphotographie.com/en/event/jean-francois-spricigo-toujours-l-aurore/) Born in 1979 in Tournai, Belgium. His interest in photography began as a teenager, and his images became a journal of his travels for years to come. After graduation from Institute National Supérieur des Arts du Spectacle (INSAS) with a degree in Cinematography, Spricigo left Brussels and was admitted as an actor in Cours Florent in Paris. At Cours Florent, Spricigo participated in various theatrical productions and made several short films. In 2003, Antoine d'Agata and Christian Caujolle discovered Spricigo’s photographic work. In 2004, Guy Jouaville presented Spricigo’s first exhibition in France at the Nationale du Parvis in Tarbes. His series entitled Silenzio was shown at Contretype Gallery in Brussels in September 2005 and was featured in a monograph published by Éditions Yellow Now. In 2007, Spricigo’s exhibition Notturno was presented at the Botanique in Brussels. That same year, the French National Library acquired 15 prints....
