You are, I am This series was conceived for the You Are Beautiful project: 111 white books have been sent around the world. We have hosted one during a year, and have filled all the pages as a compelling book of photography, letting people into our lives and families, our city and our friends, giving everyone a chance to find out who we are. The books have been exhibited at The Foundation Gallery (Chicago, USA). >> see images Anonymous This series is about a paradox: thousands of people want to be a celebrity through reality TV shows. Another side, more and more faces are blurred out in magazines and on TV. So we have proposed to unknown people in the streets to be in the spotlights ("15 seconds of fame") and to published them in a magazine. And nobody refused! So they became anonymous celebrities! >> see images The Morning Soul This series was comissioned by the brand CoolShoe for their fall/winter 08 lookbook. These lifestyle pics were done during a short trip in Irun, a town at the border between France and Spain and at the seaside in Euskadi. >> see images Joggers We've been fascinated for a long time by those people who are running in public parks. We imagine that they are running away from something dangerous! Themselves? >> see images Fogbound We've done this series with the feeling we were in a far, unknown and wild country... In fact we're at only 3 km of our office! >> see images Diptychs Free associations of pics from various road trip during these last years. >> see images Fashion victims This series is about fashion, models and 'Photoshop surgery'. Everyone wants to look like beauties in magazines, but we generally forget that pictures have been deeply modified. We've done those portraits of plastic models in shop windows thinking they were real persons. >> see images Beach boys Playing with the sun at the beach. >> see images The day I almost died This series was conceived with two main ideas: 1) We wanted to capture insignificant moments of life with the feeling that those moments could be the last before a suddenly violent death. 2) All the images have been done with a very cheap camera because we think that the most important thing about photography is the feeling and not the technical aspect. >> see images
