Biography
A professional violinist, Sébastien Grébille approached photography through music. Retranscribing to the public the emotion, the technical gesture or the power of the classical masters has become essential. Little by little, he began to look for these intense, lyrical and dramatic atmospheres in other places. The search for timeless and sometimes surreal sites, where we find powerful, magical, wild nature, but also traces of civilization became a priority.
To showcase these extraordinary views, he uses a long exposure technique: the skies laden with dense clouds then express themselves freely, the sea becomes milky… which suggests the vision of another world. For these photographs, the shots last from 1 to 10 minutes, which gives an unreal contrast between the subject and the environment. They are part of Another World series. Furtif deux has been photographed near Etretat in a difficult-to-access place where the threatening elements add to the site’s beauty. D’autres horizons, which has been photographed in Tharon, is a fishery tangled by the moving elements around, the sky was perfect for a long exposure. The rendering invites you to escape, to other shores, other horizons…
