Second book by Philippe Jarrigeon published by RVB Books, following PLAY (2021), Rocher Fatal explores the Forest of Fontainebleau as a territory conducive to imagination and fiction.
Through a series of cinematic photographs, the artist constructs a universe where natural landscapes, human figures, and unusual scenes intersect. Inspired by his walks in the forest, he transforms these explorations into a visual narrative threaded with historical references, absurd situations, and unexpected appearances. Several prominent figures from the French art scene, including Nina Childress, Théo Mercier, Vimala Pons, Laura Vazquez, and Rebeka Warrior, participate in this staging.
In the background, the book also touches upon the fragility of this environment, marked by the fires that occurred after the photographs were taken. Bridging fiction, memory, and landscape observation, Rocher Fataloffers a singular vision of the Forest of Fontainebleau and our relationship with natural spaces.
