Animal lovers from an early age, I develop a special attraction for dogs during an initiatory trip to Latin America. The meeting with an abandoned dog in the desert of northern Argentina makes me aware of the joys of adoption. When I return to Europe, I am interested in dog training at a renowned school &quot;Bocalan&quot; in Madrid. So I decide to link my passions and create a non-profit association that aims to help oppressed dogs, educate them and show them through the image to raise awareness of their adoption . My job and my most precious goal is to share and capture a wide range of emotions to embody the purity of their souls through the image.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/545753/22792196_10155813504104568_784915751483024788_o-1538587104.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p><em>&quot;Roman is a wanderer around the world, a poet of adventure, a free being,<br /> a man who is not afraid of anything, without attachment or constraint. A threatened species. On his way, he met a dog, free, without attachment or constraint!<br /> He called it MILAN as a tribute to the writer Milan Kundera whom he admires enormously.<br /> Since then, they share their inseparable lives, travel the planet, delivered to the hearts of those who help and welcome them, more often in misery than in comfort.<br /> Roman and Milan have decided to dedicate their lives to making humans aware of not giving up their companions. Both have often traveled with poor stray dogs to strive to feed and adopt. It is on this subject that I met them briefly at the exit of La Madrague. I was moved by this dog-master couple indissociable and courageous. I promised them to help them in their wonderful abandonment project around the world. This story directed by Roman, shows the journey of Milan the adventurer. A writing and moving photographs, beautiful of truth and Love.&quot;</em></p> <p>Brigitte Bardot.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>It started like that ..</strong></p> <p><strong>Animal lover, I dreamed of traveling and sharing my freedom with a dog,<br /> to create a visceral complicity. In June 2013, I went to South America with the idea of ​​adopting a dog named Mil&aacute;n, as a tribute to one of my favorite writers. An injured and abandoned dog who followed me on Route 40 on the way out of a mountainous village in northern Argentina. A wandering soul who will accompany me from the desert to the oceans. It was on these paths that I became aware of my true poetic nature. Both of us have traveled miles on the roads of Latin America and Europe. On foot, by car, by truck, by bike, by boat and by plane. Traveling with a dog means living like a dog. This timeless story is above all an invitation to travel, a hymn to nature and love. It is also a look at the human condition.</strong></p> <p><strong>Due to the specificity of the animal communication which implies to communicate from soul to soul, we have the possibility of dialoguing with the animals on a psychic and intellectual level very deep and sincere. They do not wear masks as we all do, to &quot;hold our place in society.&quot; That&#39;s why I decided to pay tribute to my dog, to our dog at all.&nbsp;Too much love that has not left me the choice to express it through Art.</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>I think I signed a pact with Mil&aacute;n.</strong></p> <p><strong>I promised him to help his neighbor and help him in this quest of&nbsp;love.</strong></p> <p><strong>Our meeting on the road showed me the way to go.</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/545757/3-1538587481.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <blockquote> <p>I do not find my place in this world. That&#39;s why I lead this dog life without a boss. I sometimes feel that the dog is me. And if it was you who had adopted me? You are the actor of my life and I try to put it in scene to keep the memory that one day existed.</p> </blockquote> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Two years of work were needed: an entire year of archiving photographs, then a second for graphic design, text and layout.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/545817/5-1538602555.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <blockquote> <p>Les chiens errants laissent derrière eux,<br /> des traces qui font de la rue un territoire parfois hostile.<br /> On ne remarque pas toujours les coeurs qui saignent sur le boulevard.

For the sake of monitoring and quality, I made the choice to print the book at <strong>Escourbiac</strong> in Paris which I do not need to mention the famous they are.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Why a book?</strong></p> <p><strong>This book is the result of a long experimental work in the field during my travels where I tried video, writing or drawing. It seems to me that the role of an artist is to convey emotions, to tell stories and to invite people to travel. I see the book as a tool of authenticity that becomes rare, an opening to the world. I am happy to share this story in the hands of the greatest number but also to awaken the consciousness of abandonment around the world.</strong></p> <p>.</p>
