Arnaud Lajeunie

"In Lajeunie’s series of images, colour appears as a powerful intrusion upon the ocean. The images presented in the work Water meets colour, colour meets water are loaded with violence. The ocean is tinted with natural sugar colouring, causing an array of absorbing patterns to materialise in the waves. As the colours bleed into the sea, the texture of the water thickens and the motion of the waves is (re)defined, revealing its hidden course and complex networks. The crashing waves, which are carefully contained within the camera frame, pull the viewer into a vortex of frozen shapes and novel configurations that are otherwise indiscernible to the human eye."

Facades by Zacharie Gaudrillot-Roy

"Facades is an ongoing series of work by French photographer Zacharie Gaudrillot-Roy that imagines a world where facades have been completely isolated from buildings. He shares of the project" writes Collosal

The façade is the first thing we see, it’s the surface of a building. It can be impressive, superficial or safe. Just like during a wandering through a foreign city, I walk through the streets with these questions: what will happen if we stick to that first vision? If the daily life of “The Other” was only a scenery? This series thus offers a vision of an unknown world that would only be a picture, without intimate space, with looks as the only refuge.

"Le skate moderne is a french documentary about a couple of young skaters that are not your typical archetype of riders. These young folks started to skate to avoid their traced destiny when the quit school.
