Alexandre is a professional self-taught photographer and musician, immersed in an authentic and personal search for poetic atmospheres of wild nature. The most important thing to him is the emotional connection that transports us to the heart of his subjects through the atmosphere that emerges from them. Always in search of inspiration, he invites us to share his ethereal journey.

"An ethereal atmosphere is one that allows reverie and evocation. One that, since its interpretation, transports us beyond the subject itself. The kingdom of our imaginary worlds."

Alexandre began his photographic quest in the 2000s as a kind of very powerful inner call. Also a musician and composer, these creative impulses have been significant drivers of his creativity as well as provided him comfort and resilience on his path to overcome a recurring pain in finding a place in this world as it is. Transforming this path into some form of beauty has become an essential part of who he is and is reflected in his beautiful photographic work.

"Among all things, it is the Atmosphere that guides me… Always. Because that's where Emotion is born. The Emotion that connects us, the One that makes the subject alive and vibrant, through our gaze."

Alexandre's VAST photos speak of his story. They attempt to express the unspeakable, representing Alexandre's path from darkness to light. His work inspires people around the world, both in print form as well as in the workshops he leads, in the conferences he presents at, in the film about his journey "The Quest for Inspiration" (2012), and in his book "Voyage Éthéré" (2016).

Our canvas material has a delightfully matte finish that looks spectacular in any lighting conditions while retaining maximum vibrancy and contrast. Click here to learn more.

Produced using a specialty, large-format fine art printer operating at 300ppi resolution—the gold standard for sharpness

Printed onto heavyweight, 100% acid-free fine art canvas to preserve color-accuracy and longevity

Created using materials and methods that exceed the rigorous technical standards required to achieve the prized "giclée" industry rating

Designed to meet the most demanding standards for color-permanence set by leading museums

Handmade by award-winning master printmakers with over 4 decades of experience

VAST Print™

A VAST Print™ represents the pinnacle of the photographic medium. Each print is a true photograph created specifically for you using light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom with the industry's highest precision exposure technique. Your print is then sealed with a shine-enhancing protective glossy coating*, adhered to a sturdy aluminum composite backing, and finished in one of two ready-to-hang formats:

  • Frameless floating display: A hidden mounting brace on the rear gracefully "floats" the print off the wall for a sleek, modern look.
  • Framed display: The print is mounted inside one of our handcrafted 100% wood frames with a decorative separation between the print and the frame so that the print appears to be floating within the frame, providing depth and elegance to the finished photo.

*Note: a non-glossy, satin matte coating is alternatively available on request.
