What is your first memory of a photo camera? How did you get started in photography?
You attended the Gobelins School of Image. How has this influenced your photographic practice?
What does photography mean to you? Can you give us your definition?
There isn’t one photograph. There are photographs. Every area of photography is different. It is what you choose to do that remains important. For me, it allows me to see the world through different prisms. To make the invisible more visible. To show things that can’t be expressed in words. It’s about recreating worlds with elements of reality (like models, set design…). Or worlds that are more imaginary (special effects, digital painting…). All these mixtures create their own poetry of the image.
At the Hyères Festival last year, you presented a stunning series of photographs «Adam and Adam». How did you achieve such a painterly effect?
These are really photographs. The bodies were painted beforehand with make-up artist Sarah Wandee. This gives the image a painted aspect. Afterwards, I also use filters in front of my lens. And I repaint my images with software.
What is the story behind this series of photos?
They are a couple of friends who have agreed to work on different forms of love. The use of color allows me to develop a code that speaks of the energies that love conveys. All these colors advocate a freedom of representation of gender, sex and class.
What feelings did you plan for “Adam and Adam” to elicit in viewers?
I don’t think you have to predict what effect you could have on the audience. But rather to do things because it is a desire, a need. I think that after the first lockdown due to covid, we needed to get carried away.

Your work is very artistic. Do you think it’s important for a photographer to know the basics of painting?
What do you draw your inspiration from?
Can you give any advice to aspiring photographers?
Believe in your dreams, get carried away and go for it!
What projects are you working on next?
I have two projects in progress at the moment. I’m developing the “Adam and Adam” series around synesthesia (the relationship between sound and color). For this, I’m working with a music composer who creates sounds from colored bodies.
And also another project around Phosphorescence. The energies that emanate from the human interior. What we don’t say with words, but which we transmit through the body.

A thin edge of seduction and the consumerism fetish is thoroughly blurred in Acosta’s art in the use of both light, and dark tones. Bold lines serve as a fashionable juxtaposition of a peaceful dream-like state and a vivid color, representing action and presence in the moment.
