Although a professional director and producer for film and video (corporate, docs, music video…) Eric has always made still pictures as a non professional in the sense that it has never been « a job ». Still pictures always remains a secret garden beside his moving pictures production. At a time in his professional life the passion for still picture can develop, the series « One meter Square », 1M2, takes place, a series which will be a never ending series. It is called 1 M2 since each time Eric photographs the soil at his feet with his 6X6 Hasselblad camera equiped with the only lens he has (a Zeiss 60 mm which is matching his vison of things), he captures a surface which is roughly one meter square. This is a neverending series because just as a portraitist always finds new interest in new faces to photograph, Eric never stops to find new « earthprints » to capture.
