Invasions by French photographer Charles Petillon is a dreamy series that employs white balloons against objects and open space that will inspire you to daydream at your desk.
The series, to be featured in early 2015 at Maison Européene de la Photographie in Paris, is characterized by its calming effect and simplicity, as well as his continued interest in using props that he makes with his own hands.
Said to represent the idea of a visual emotion that can often go ignored, Charles Petillon's series invites the viewer to contemplate the matter they do not see, such as the weight of one's emotional life. The image of the balloons escaping from a home, titled 'Souvenirs de famille,' is concerned with communicating the flow of memories that may emerge when one views their childhood home.
