In several thousand of years humanity has appropriated its environment. It was coagulated, fermented, drained and refined… Transformed in product. Series Milky Way operates different forms of cheeses to put on stage the conflicts between modernity human and nature.

These films were made during various different periods of my life. They all investigate different aspects of nature, whether they delve into its inaccessible truths, study its frictional relationship with humanity or simply contemplate its stunning riches. Many of these images were shot while I was out for a walk, often with a specific project in mind, but prepared for surprise discoveries which would enrich, or even supplant, my original ideas. Filtering these images through the prism of my imagination, I fictionalize the fruit of my observations, adding animation, sonic experimentation and music. These films consist of my attempt, as a human being, to create an imaginary link with nature. (Cyprien Nozières)
