/ 7%
7% is a photographic series capturing the stark transformation of our planet through the retreat of
glaciers. Powdered with Saharan sand, the ice appears like a wounded, animal-like skin—its haunting orange hue a visual warning of climate change’s reach.
Inspired by French President Macron’s remarks, the series reflects on the consequences of melting ice: biodiversity loss, rising seas, water scarcity, and mass migration. France is losing 7% of its glaciers each year. Focusing on La Jonction glacier, the images resemble a slow, dignified farewell to these vanishing giants.

As summers grow hotter and winters shorter, regeneration becomes impossible. Shot with a Mamiya 645 on 120 film, the series becomes a visual elegy and a call to action—a reminder that we may be the last to witness the fragile beauty of glacial landscapes.
