Jean-Claude Bélégou les années d'initiation PRIMITIVES (1968/1972)

Jean-Claude Bélégou is sixteen years old when he first starts to practice photography regularly. The same year, he discovers himself a passion for the dark room and fits out his first laboratory in the family bathroom.
Taken with a Semflex 6X6, his photographies are at one time black and white, and another time in colour. These are Jean-Claude Bélégou's years of initiation to photography.
The three opposite photographies were made during an ascapade in Cotentin, on an Easter week-end. They were shown for the first time in 1983.
