French photographer, Philippe Spigolon, is a typologist at heart. The majority of his projects reflect a life of daily observations, observations of simple and sometimes insignificant objects. His focused attention of these objects reflect what he sees on his way to work and what he sees in the hospital where he spends his days. I’m featuring three of his many projects.

I live in Albi where I was born (in 1965) in the south from France. I travel little and I don’t go far from my house; my work explores my daily environment… which is inexhaustible.
