AGATHE TOMAN Born in 1989, Agathe Toman is a French artist of French, Austrian and Czech origins. Her practice spans painting, drawing, photography and writing.

Her work is present in numerous private collections in France and abroad and has been the subject of publications in various media dedicated to art and contemporary creation. Agathe Toman lives and works today in the Landes, in the southwest of France. THE PHOTOGRAPHY In her photographic practice, Agathe Toman primarily photographs forests, mountains, the sea and natural phenomena. Her images do not seek to document a landscape. They seek what appears when it ceases to be merely a place. Grain, deep blacks, erasures, light accidents and loss of definition gradually tilt reality toward abstraction. This approach directly aligns with her painterly practice: covering, erasing, accumulating, removing, letting appear. “I do not invent the images; I make them appear.” Her work is built around what, in experience, precedes understanding. An inner necessity becomes a form. Thus, photography becomes less the representation of a landscape than the trace of an experience: something between the visible and what escapes it.
