RootsToWild
Brought to life by Nicolas Moulin
Architect by training, he worked across the world, from vibrant cities to remote, uncharted landscapes. These experiences honed him ability to read places, to sense their tensions between order and chaos, nature and architecture, permanence and transformation. Today, he divides his time between Athens and Paris, two territories that deepen his reflection on landscape and image-making. Black and white photography has become his language to translate this sensitivity to place. Each image resonates like a fragment of memory, where visible and invisible traces engage in a quiet dialogue with time.
Rootstowild unfolds as a cinematic journey, blending light, silence, and rhythm. At the edge of the poetic and the documentary, these photographs invite immersion in contemporary landscapes, revealing their hidden layers and fragile balances. This work speaks to curious eyes, passionate collectors, and institutions seeking a singular, contemplative exploration of place.
Four notes for Composing Rootstowild
- Silence as Material
Each photograph arises where the world’s noise fades, seeking that suspended moment when silence becomes almost tangible. - Traces and Passage
The images reveal the visible and invisible marks left by time and human presence, fragile dialogues between memory and erasure. - Light as Narrative Voice
Light becomes the voice of the territory. In black and white, it shapes volumes, contrasts, and narratives where every element finds its role. - Composing as Storytelling
Each series unfolds like a film: scenes, pauses, shifts in rhythm and scale. A few images are enough to suggest an immersive, almost silent story.

Pigment fine art prints have a lifespaxn of up to 50 years or even more, depending on the specifications of each paper (OBA percentage, acid free, etc.).

ChromaLuxe Metal Prints have a lifetime of up to 64 years, as defined by the certifications provided by the manufacturing company ChromaLuxe and Wilhelm Imaging Research, without these being at the same time a guarantee of lifetime and this because there can be no control as to conditions in which the prints are exposed at the end.
These certifications tests have been carried out under specific exposure conditions, such as indoor use, no sunlight or uv radiation, 20˚C – 28˚C temperature, 60% humidity and absence of environmental or other air pollution. Any deviation from the above can reduce the lifespan and affect the quality of the prints. Under normal conditions of sun exposure (direct or even reflected), the lifespan can be reduced to less than 5 years. Photolab Athens informs about the certifications of each method by the manufacturing companies, but does not guarantee the lifetime of the prints.
