In Ancient Greek, the word kosmogonía means creation of the world, from kósmos (order, world, universe) + gónos (creation, begetting).

The Kosmogonía series interweaves the human, the animal, and the vegetal. In a dreamlike form, it suggests the deep links between the different living organisms, their intrinsic communication as well as the notion of interdependence. Immersed in nature, human figures – some of which metamorphose into hybrid creatures – resonate with the living things that surround them. The association of these scattered fragments, memories of sensory experiences, assembled as in a puzzle, reveals a world where everything exists in correlation … like these communicating networks formed by flocks of birds, or these infinite arboreal ramifications and underground layers of roots and rhizomes.

About Maud Evrard

Born in France, Maud Evrard has studied history of art and fine arts. After dedicating herself some years strictly to painting, she started simultaneously her work as a photographer. When she had passed a master’s degree of photography, she concentrated mainly on the art of photography. For her, a picture is a conveyor of existential questions, allowing her to take a meditative look at the world. By evoking an iconography that navigates through body, face, and landscape, she explores the interweavings of subject, space, and time. In doing so, she places the essence of being at the heart of her preoccupations, in its relation to what exists both around and within it. Her work has been shown internationally at festivals and various exhibitions and published in photography magazines. [Official Website]
