In Alain Laboile’s latest black-and-white photograph, one of his daughters—now a young woman—walks away along a snow-covered path, cloaked in a coat with rabbit ears. The landscape around her is hushed and blanketed in snow, with dense trees and a still body of water framing the scene in a soft, dreamlike quiet. She seems to move not just along a forest, but through time itself.
Raised in the rhythm of the seasons and homeschooled in a house immersed in nature, Laboile’s children have grown not apart from the wild, but into it. This image reflects that seamless bond—where identity, and environment merge—suggesting not only a moment of solitude, but a life lived in deep harmony with the natural world.
