JULIETTE AGNEL ジュリエット・アニェル
Presented by Van Cleef & Arpels
Juliette Agnel's exhibition evokes the invisible forces of a sacred space, with quiet photographs of minerals and plants that convey the Earth's powerful spirit
Juliette Agnel is known for her poetic and metaphysical approach to landscape and light. The French artist explores the relationship between humanity, nature, and the invisible forces that connect them, often working at night or in remote environments such as deserts and glaciers. In these spaces, Agnel captures what she describes as "the vibration of the world". Her practice resonates with philosophical and anthropological themes, reflecting a deep sensitivity to time, mythology, and the presence of light as both a subject and symbol.
At KYOTOGRAPHIE, AgneI will show two colour series made in collaboration with Van Cleef & Arpels: Dahomey Spirit and Susceptibility of Rocks.

Juliette Agnel ジュリエット・アニェル
Juliette Agnel (b. 1973, France) studied visual arts at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts and the University of Paris I. Throughout her career she has explored a wide range of analogue, digital, and experimental imagery. Driven to understand the world through a holistic approach, this exploration eventually led her to seek out the invisible and spiritual forces of
the landscape through photography. She has held a solo show at the Rencontres d’Arles, exhibited at institutions including the Jeu de Paume and the Louvre, and in 2023 she received the Niépce Prize.
