Book Synopsis

With Borderline, the Belgian photographer Paul D'Haese explores the coastal strip from Bray-Dunes to Le Havre. His photographs of the chaotic built-up landscape with its blind walls, parapets and fences ironically depict this coastline as a new Atlantic wall. In this, they form a masterful visual fable about the desert that can become a country that closes itself off. The images question the forms of a heterogeneous building, the sediment of human activity. In particular it offers a beautiful metaphor for an approach that invites in-depth reading rather than surface contemplation. The project obtained Le Prix de la Ministre de la Culture' - May 2021 - Musée de la Photographie, Charleroi.
