Sarah Blard is a fine art photographer and visual author based in France.

Working with analogue photography, she explores the fragile boundaries between reality, memory and the imaginary. Her practice is rooted in the materiality of film, its grain, its imperfections and its distinctive interpretation of light and colour.

​

Working with natural light and occasional in-camera double exposures, she lets landscapes unfold somewhere between the visible and the imagined. She is particularly drawn to transitional moments such as dawn, dusk and changing weather, when familiar places appear suspended outside of time.

​

Nature, introspection, memory and the passage of time are recurring themes throughout her work. Rather than documenting a place literally, Sarah seeks to reveal its emotional resonance and the invisible sensations it can evoke.

Her mysterious and contemplative photographs invite the viewer to slow down and enter a space where reality becomes uncertain and each image unfolds like a visual poem.

"The French photographer Sarah Blard is a dreamer.
Her images, a mix of film and digital, explore her imagination, in mysterious and wonderful settings. The landscapes she photographs seem to come from a fantasy world, filled with strange colours.
A soothing journey."
