Antoine De Winter (BE, 1985)

All The Places and the Places Between explores photographic apparition as a retinal persistence of the sun, an echo turning into a murmur, a memory that shatters. This series reveals place while simultaneously fragmenting it, allowing memory to crack and recompose itself according to intimate geologies, where reality oscillates between emergence and disappearance, transforming remembrance into a hybrid territory.

Antoine De Winter developed singular techniques to create images with the very salt and earth of Cadaqués. Water converses with rock, the landscape inscribes itself with its own matter. Salt crystallizes and sculpts the image into mountainous reliefs, until the stone gives birth to the sea once again.

Through the very fragility of these processes, the images become relics. The image arises — forever fleeting. Like a vesperal apparition, the object emerges between what has been and what will remain, glimpsed through a veil that reveals a new territory, woven from water, rock, and light.
