About this photograph :
Paper Plane
These photographs were taken at a public airfield in the free zone of the American Edwards Air Force base in the Mojave Desert. The California City aerodrome is a place populated by enthusiasts who live purely for their love of flying machines. It is here that I take the controls of the mythical Fouga Magister and that I take photos of the famous and gracious DC3 better known by its nickname Dakota.
About the artist :
Olivier
Lavielle
Oliver Lavielle is a fan of the period between the ‘30s and the ‘70s. His world is full of jazz, swing, blues, rock ‘n’ roll and a hint of disco. Untouched by the aesthetics of the period, his subjects are best expressed exclusively in black and white. These dynamic compositions are inspired by Hollywood style. As a world traveller, Asia and the United States have inspired him. As a private pilot, his aircraft photos express the intimate, special relationship that he has with his toys, as he likes to call them. Entering his world, is a little like travelling in time, and as Olivier is also a flight crew member for an airline company, only one thing remains to be said: "Welcome on board!"
