À gauche et légèrement face à nous, une barque en bois sombre, sobre, sans ornements, repose immobile, accostée à un quai ancien fait de larges pierres de taille. La barque semble vide — ou bien attend-elle une présence ? Son silence est lourd de suggestion, comme si elle venait de traverser les eaux pour déposer une âme dans ce lieu figé hors du réel.
Le quai lui-même est solidement ancré à une paroi rocheuse verticale, presque sculpturale. Cette paroi est percée de niches, creusées dans la pierre, d’un style antique. S’agit-il de chapelles oubliées, de sanctuaires votifs, ou de tombeaux silencieux ? L’ambiguïté fait partie du mystère. Les cavités semblent plus anciennes que le temps, habitées par une absence palpable. Le lieu, malgré son immobilité, vibre d’un souffle funèbre, mais pas macabre — un souffle de age, de seuil.
L’atmosphère générale de la photographie évoque une suspension entre la vie et la mort, entre la mer des vivants et la rive des disparus. Le silence est total, presque spirituel. C’est une image qui ne raconte pas une histoire, mais une attente — celle du dernier voyage, d’un retour, ou d’un oubli.

Gaspard de Gouges lives and works in the Gard, between Montpellier and Marseille (). He is a graduate of the National School of Decorative Arts in Paris. In the early 2000s, he began to paint large format figurative canvases, group portraits. Since 2021 he has devoted himself to photography, which has become a game for him, a kind of motionless journey.
"I started photographing scenes when I was 10 years old, with very realistic toys and models that I built with stalks of dry grass, miniature vehicles. For a long time I wanted to photograph islands, to their dreamlike power, I love to travel there and their memory persists. Their existence plunges us into an elsewhere. I imagined them tropical, but it is on mineral and Mediterranean islands that I finally decided to evoke. My approach is to create stagings, artificial but plausible, realistic landscapes. I create imaginary worlds, sometimes containing ruins, at least rocks that sometimes make me think of fortresses. These landscapes surprise me and always give me a lot of pleasure to create. "
