Philippe Vitry

Philippe Vitry is a French fashion photographer whose sophisticated world is imbued with a sweet nostalgia. His solitary characters are inscribed in outdated and timeless places. Stuck in the wait for this impossible return, they bear witness to rare and fleeting apparitions of beauty.
In his series The Lonely State, presented by David & David Studio, the photographer takes us on a random journey through a disillusioned America, where the American dream seems never to have been fully realised. Desert landscapes, abandoned wreckage... as if an unprecedented catastrophe had suddenly buried all human presence, leaving as the only trace of our passage old machines, witnesses of a past glory.
