Philippe Chiodi's Menton


Meet Philippe Chiodi, a Menton photographer and artist, whose work I adore. I love his eye for a photo. He is the first local photographer who inspired me to see things in Menton in a different way - and he continues to inspire me. His photo below won third prize in the photo competition 'Menton, Ville Onerique' - part of an exhibition at the gardens of the Serre de la Madone on the Route de Gorbio - and which continues until the 21st May.

'Onerique' seems to mean, in this instance, 'Menton, as in a dream' - as opposed to dreaming of Menton.
