Turned towards human psychology, the work of Simon Beraud translates questions intrinsic to the fact of existing in society, on Earth : questions of identity, roots and uprooting, cultural heritage, memory, love. His images, he expresses a sense of homage through them : a homage to the lights and the shadows, to the women and the men, to the places and to the spaces he goes through. From a subjective point of view - always searching for a sense of intimacy and of empathy with the subject - he invites the viewer to find resonances with the feelings and thoughts that animate his work.
He’s based in Paris.

D’un type de photographie tourné vers la psychologie - vers l’humain - le travail de Simon Beraud traduit des questionnements intrinsèques au fait d’exister en société, sur Terre : des questions d’identité, de racines et de déracinement, d’héritage socio-culturel, d’amour.
Ses images, il les produit comme une forme d’hommage : aux lumières et aux ombres, aux hommes et aux femmes - surtout : aux lieux qu’il traverse et qui le traversent... D’un point de vue assumé subjectif, cherchant toujours un sentiment d’intimité et d’empathie avec le sujet, son travail invite le spectateur à trouver des résonances avec les émotions et les pensées qui l’animent.
