Christian Berthelot
After seeing his son for the first time, the photographer Christian Berthelot had the idea to portrait some newborn babies just a few seconds after birth. The results are some of the most miraculous photos ever taken.
The consequent series, “Cesar”, shows us a series of children different from the photos we are used to, in fact they are covered of blood and other substances, “like warriors who had just won their first battles”, as the author said.
All the children showed in these pictures experienced a Cesarean section, like the title suggests, and like the photographer’s son, his source of inspiration for this project.
CESAR will be shown in France during the Festival Circulations’ Festival Circulation (s) Exhibition from January 24 to March 8, 2015 in Paris. Visit here for more information on the festival.
