Sète#23 is an intimate and atmospheric photography monograph by Italian artist Lorenzo Castore, published as part of the esteemed “Sète” collection by Le Bec en l’Air. Created during his residency for the “Images Singulières” festival, the book presents Sète not as a postcard destination, but as a gritty, living organism. Castore wanders through the docks, back-alleys, and bars, capturing the salt-stained reality of the port and the resilient faces of its inhabitants. Through 96 pages of cinematic imagery, the volume explores the tension between the city’s ancient maritime history and its contemporary pulse, rendered through Castore’s signature high-contrast and deeply subjective lens.
