About
A photographer of the field, of instinct and soul
Photography is made with lenses, yet has nothing to do with objectivity. Failing to be objective, one must be sincere.
Perfectionist and provocateur at once, Alain Issock roams the globe, from metropolises to African and Australian deserts, from studios to wild trails, by turns creator and witness. His journey is lined with adventures from which he captures powerful, poignant moments of humanity — self-transcendence, joy, and profound intensity.
