A woman looks at the sun, a couple
chats over a coffee, a mother
and her daughter cross the road,
these innocuous moments, the
photographer sublimates them
with a search for chiaroscuro
that dramatizes the scene and
plunges us into a cinematographic
world. Chervine invites the viewer
to imagine the story of these
anonymous figures, both close and
foreign at the same time.
About author:
Chervine is self-taught in photography. His interest lies in urban landscapes with one or characters in the frame, in which he explores their states of minds, whether these are in Paris, New York or Mexico City.
His images are taken in natural light, with no staging involved.

Photo London in May 2019, at Hotel la Belle Juliette in Paris (from March to June 2019), at the collective show "Le Fauteuil d'Emmanuelle" in Paris (Galerie Anne et Just Jaeckin, May to June 2019), at the "Nuit de la Photo" festival in Switzerland (February 2018), and in a the private salon of the Alcazar in Paris (May-November 2018).
His solo show "Urbain intime" was running from November 2017 to Jan 2018, at Galerie Basia Embiricos in Paris.
He was selected for the Santa Fe Review, which he attended in October 2017, and then participated in the Santa Fe festival.
In 2017, the Musée de l'Elysée published his Solitudes series in its magazine (ELSE, issue #13).
