Nō is a French photographic artist, born in 1977. His work is deeply structured by an aesthetic of the living in all its forms – at times familiar, at times strange, sometimes held at a distance. Through chance encounters, he builds a poetry of the organic: of skins, barks and carapaces. Thus a body of work takes shape, made of collection, observation and obsession.
