The Deviation series displays bodies in unexpected postures that ‘deviate’ from the ordinary to the extra-ordinary. Unpredicted trajectories, misdirections, reversals of perspective disorganize reality, drawing their own poetic routes. These images feature anonymous characters whose various “body patterns” open up a world of fictions. Created in camera, in collaboration with dancers, these images are composed from the graphic and chromatic possibilities of minimalist architectures, inviting negative space as a breath within the frenetic rhythm of the city. « Deviation is meant to disrupt a few things — our spatial understanding, the daily commute, and maybe also the ingrained sense of our limitations."It all happens in real time and space with real people, and not in post production » - Curious Photo Blog - FAR, Center for Contemporary Arts.
