Vincent Fournier's photography captures a longing for the space age that lives somewhere between the recently made-possible and the science fiction of the '70s and '80s. Inspired by trips to the Paris museum of science, Vincent has been fascinated by the machine world since his youth and incorporates it into most of his work.
In the latest episode of VBS’s Picture Perfect series, we met Fournier at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, where, like a nature photographer in pursuit of a rare bird, he aims at his ultimate subject: the wonderful and controversial and tragic space shuttle, sitting on the launch pad, ready for that one final shot.
