After visiting the American Southwest, Briot became enthralled with the artistic potential this landscape afforded. In 1986 he relocated to the United States and studied photography at Northern Arizona University. From 1995 to 2002, he lived at Canyon de Chelly, Arizona, in the heart of the Navajo Nation. Living there allowed him to become intimately familiar with Native American arts and culture.
