A sequence of 9 photograps of the full moon taken one after another from the same spot, with the same parameters of exposition. Then the focal length changes with each photograph.

What we are looking at, is the space, the space between us and the moon (with the moon in the background). At first we are looking at the space 1,5 ft far from us, then 3 ft, then 5 ft...and eventually infinity. Our sight is moving forward as if on a journey. The moon becomes a dream, a kind of background for this journey towards a place as difficult to reach as the horison.
