Song of Silent Water

Song of Silent Water by Mathieu Chaze is a visual meditation on nature, captured through a lens that prioritizes sin-cerity and essentiality over contemporary trends. Curated by the renowned David Campany, the volume brings toge-ther images born from long walks and a profound observation of the landscape: a dog in the mist, rolling hills, a treereflected in water, a solitary heron. As noted by the legendary photographer Bernard Plossu in his introduction, Cha-ze’s photographs possess a "secret atmosphere" and a fragrance that speaks directly to the soul, free from technicalartifice or passing fashions. The work explores the concept of sustained time, where individual moments are not iso-lated events but fragments linked by a quiet, invisible rhythm—much like the intervals that give shape to a song.Beautifully designed by Federico Barbon and printed in duotone, this book invites the reader to walk alongside theartist on a journey of pure expression and a discovery of the authentic.
