Éléments alpins explore la transformation des Alpes sous l’impact des infrastructures et des flux humains. La série montre comment les montagnes, autrefois hostiles, sont devenues un espace hybride de roches et de béton, marqué par le tourisme de masse et les activités humaines. Les photographies capturent des foules dans diverses activités, offrant une perspective quasi-anthropologique sans promouvoir le tourisme, mais suggérant plutôt que l’occupation humaine des montagnes est une modification irréversible, transformant les Alpes en non-lieux anonymes et interchangeables. À travers les constructions et les flux humains, l’espace et les mouvements sont interrogés, recréant parfois une nouvelle dimension spatiale et temporelle. Le rôle de la montagne est également questionné: elle est devenue un lieu d’exotisme et de tourisme de masse, comme ces nombreux visiteurs explorant les grottes de glace des glaciers avant leur disparition prévue dans très peu de temps…
