Cap d'Agde, 1977
A coastal modernist shoot where Ava's dress and profile move across concrete, marina edges, white galleries, and low sea haze.
Cap d'Agde gives the book its architectural counterweight. Concrete, arcade, marina, and roofline establish a severe rhythm, then Ava enters with fabric, profile, and movement at a human scale.

- Editor note
- Cap d'Agde gives the monograph its hardest lines. The architecture sets the grid; Ava supplies the interruption.
Cap d'Agde is arranged as a hard sequence of edges: roof, marina, gallery, dusk line, arcade, sea wall. Ava supplies the interruption without softening the place into romance.
Material before motion.
Two references set the surface, weather, and scale before Ava enters the reels.
Six photographs held beside the reels.
Six photographs held outside the reels, arranged as a local contact run.

Modern Roof
A profile against hard roofline, concrete heat, and white fabric.
Concrete establishes the measure before the marina, gallery, arcade, and sea wall narrow around her.View reel
Marina Walkway
A pale marina surface, masts, balconies, and Ava crossing the concrete.
The marina turns resort space into civic surface, with Ava crossing the grid rather than posing inside it.View reel
White Gallery
White walls and reflected light turn a walk into the scene.
The gallery softens the concrete sequence without leaving its geometry behind.View reel
Roofline at Dusk
Ava below a concrete horizon, the dress breaking the dusk line.
The roofline lowers the horizon until the dress becomes the interruption.View reel
White Arcade Figure
A soft vertical line moving under repeating white arches.
The arcade repeats the body in intervals, giving the walk a measured architectural beat.View reel
Sea Wall Profile
Profile, white wall, and sea glare cut the image down to essentials.
The modernist sequence closes near the face, where wall and glare become portrait structure.View reelThe concrete narrows into portrait.
What begins as civic surface ends beside a sea wall, where profile and glare carry the architecture at close range.
