In Julien Pacaud’s short auto­bi­og­ra­phy, he writes that he’s even­tu­ally hop­ing to have enough time to devote him­self to his real pas­sion — time travel.

Look­ing through Julien’s port­fo­lio, it is a topic not far from his mind. He uti­lizes vin­tage pho­tographs to cre­ate fan­tas­ti­cal com­po­si­tions of peo­ple who are able to fly, and just gen­er­ally larger than life. These illus­tra­tions are less abstract than what I’ve seen, and fully flush out for­eign lands.

Julien’s work is very clean, mak­ing it more believ­able and over­all cohe­sive. His sense of color also adds to this, and I’m fur­ther reminded of the past when I look at it — The sub­tle color dropped within monot­one is indica­tive of the way pho­tographs were col­ored in the mid 20th century.
