After 15 years of photographic research, Trillon published his first book, in 2009, "Le sous-sol de Dieu"
(The Basement of God), inspired by Yuko Mishima.
Today, he is currently working on three different books focusing on his favorite themes.
Each one reveals a specific aspect of his research.
The first one , based on the constructive and creative imagination of the writings of Alex-F. Osborne
and David Lynch, "Toxic thoughts and The Oxided Soul".
His second book, also currently in the works, is based on confinement and solitude,
motivated by the writings of Bernard Lamarche-Vadel, "The Poetry of Cahos".
His third book, on surfing, is heavily influenced by the words of Sylvain Cazenave, "Blue Sky".
