Since his first encounter with a bulldog shark family, Jean-Marie’s life has changed radically, as has his view of this little-known species. Jean Marie has given himself the mission of re-creating the image of the shark in the collective consciousness. As a lover of light and image, he wants to convey his message through photography and thus change the public’s perception of the shark. His belief is that beauty is a trigger for positive emotions that allow the public to love and care for the oceans and their inhabitants. With his partner, Leina Sato and their granddaughter Naïa, ‘the child of the Ocean’, Jean-Marie travels the seas to meet cetaceans.

The connection between the team of Intuitors, and Jean-Marie and Leina, has gone beyond purely artistic collaboration. New projects are in the process of being created…

Ananda is a young and talented photographer based in Limoges. She likes to retreat and immerse herself in the forest. Dressed in a camouflage covering from head to toe, she walks, searches, observes, finds, sits and waits… Long hours to capture the moment. A moment of life within Mother Nature. A moment out of time. Forgotten. Her photos bring the forest to life. They unveil its secrets and allow us to remember that an entire ecosystem lives and dies by our side. She invites us to take the time, to observe the slightest detail in order to become aware of the whole. Thank you Ananda for the natural beauty you reveal.
