FR //
Du latin cum et vivo : « vivre ensemble »
Un livre, oui. Mais surtout une invitation à entrer au cœur de la communauté de La Poudrière. Ce projet photographique dévoile un lieu où la solidarité prend le pas sur la compétition, où les fragilités de chacun se transforment en forces partagées. L’image n’est pas seulement un regard, elle est une rencontre. Elle ouvre une fenêtre sur ce que vivre en communauté signifie. Un récit visuel qui interroge notre époque en quête de sens.

Frédéric Servais, photographe originaire de Charleroi. Depuis près de quinze ans, il développe un travail centré sur le réel et le contact humain. Coiffeur de métier, il affine son regard au fil des rencontres. Ses années au sein de l’atelier Contrast lui ont permis d’exposer régulièrement et d’exprimer sa vision à la fois sobre et spontanée.

From the Latin cum and vivo: ‘living together’
A book, yes. But above all, an invitation to step into the heart of the La Poudrière community. This photographic project reveals a place where solidarity takes precedence over competition, where each person’s vulnerabilities are transformed into shared strengths. The image is not merely a glance; it is an encounter. It opens a window onto what living in community means. A visual narrative that questions our era in search of meaning.

Frédéric Servais, photographer from Charleroi. For nearly fifteen years, he has been developing a body of work centred on reality and human connection. A hairdresser by trade, he refines his vision through his encounters. His years at the Contrast studio have enabled him to exhibit regularly and to express his vision, which is both understated and spontaneous.
