Exhibition "Presence of clouds" - ALBIN PANISSET

Originally from the Jura and passionate about this region since childhood, he began photography at the age of 13. In his early days, every subject he encountered in nature became an opportunity to take photographs. Over the years, he specialised in landscape and atmospheric photography. Meteorology has also come to play an important role in his work. Alongside his passion for photography, he worked full-time in the electrical engineering sector, a job that did not allow him to feel fully fulfilled. He therefore decided to leave it behind and devote himself entirely to photography in 2024. For more than six years, he has been studying weather models in order to anticipate atmospheric phenomena and travel, often before dawn, to places where the most unusual conditions are likely to appear. He has developed a deep fascination for mist and shifting fog, which have the ability to transform any landscape into something magical. In 2020, he began the “Lumières furtives” series, focusing on misty landscapes, waves and cascades of fog. The series has been exhibited at several festivals, including Montier-en-Der, Chamonix in 2025 and FINA in 2026. It also led to the publication of his first self-published book, “Lumières furtives”, in 2025. During 2025, he began a new photographic series, “Présences des nuées”, with the aim of combining misty and foggy atmospheres with encounters with wildlife.
