In this series of pictures, I captured moments from my documentary on Polypus, a Parisian surfboard shaper whose craft merges tradition with modernity. These images showcase the intimate process of shaping surfboards from raw, reflecting Polypus’ passion for bringing the energy of the ocean to the city of Paris. Each photograph offers a glimpse into his workshop, where artistry and craftsmanship collide, creating surfboards that carry both the soul of the sea and the spirit of urban innovation.
