ARTWORK COLLECTIVE

Victory CATHALAN. Paris

Between silence and appeasement, his paintings seem to be the reflection of recognizable vegetation or an experienced situation. It's the case. She observes and creates. And yet. The imprint of his imagination casts doubt.

State. Faced with his “oil on canvas” painting and his colors, we find ourselves somewhere between a sustained, volatile and sustained fragility, and the homogeneity of a timeless power. His painting is direct.  

Feeling. Like their creator, the works exude joy of life and peace of mind. The call to contemplation is a common point between his drawings and his paintings. His more narrative “Indian ink on paper” drawings open the doors to the imagination.

Leaving his workshop, I feel his world. His painting suggests and his drawing disposes. It was a dialogue. Like a dance, I had followed suit and yet been able to lead.

Epidermal. Met in March 2014, its imprint is such that time expands.

 

Julia DE COOKER. Paris

Photographer. The mineral predominates in his work. Only then does life take shape. The “Svalbard” series forces me to see in colors. Starting from white, the colors slowly impose themselves. His need to travel the globe in search of little-known universes is surprising. His eye detects the detail and his frame brings an unexpected tone. 

“Svalbard, an Arctic Life” offers a certain perspective, almost in slow motion, an awareness of the heat necessary for life.

The visual journey that Jeremy Spierer offers relates his way of observing what surrounds him.

His lively and fresh eye freezes moments of everyday life and then brings them back to life through his shots. He has the genius to let time continue to pass while coagulating the movement of his subjects.

Each of his photographs is a window of joy, a door that a being opens and enters. With him goes his whole life.

His journey through Israel, Argentina, Brazil and Chile will earn us two teasers in 2013-2014.

Jeremy Spierer is a young self-taught photographer born in Geneva. A lawyer by training, he began his poetic career through writing. In 2007, he received a prize from the Geneva Society of Writers for one of his poems.

 

In 2011, Jeremy launched his first photographic project in the disadvantaged neighborhoods of Tel Aviv, which he roamed armed with his first SLR and his faithful 50 mm lens which would never leave his side.

 

In September 2012, Jeremy obtained his first international recognition by standing on the podium of the Hurbanism competition organized by the Ha Riviera gallery (Tel Aviv) and awarded by the famous photographer Ziv Koren.

 

In January 2013, Jeremy left for South America, traveling from Brazil to Chile via Argentina. The resulting series of images describe with force and emotion the moments of life of the inhabitants of the different cities and regions visited.

 

At the end of this trip, Jeremy organized his first exhibition in Geneva in June 2013 in collaboration with the squarestudio agency.

 

His series taken on Ipanema Beach was awarded the Photo Democracy Award by Steve McCurry and was exhibited at the Beetles+Huxley gallery in London.

 

Jeremy then went to Ukraine, France and Italy. Its ambition is to give a mirror to the world. To show it its beauty and its fragility through images cradled in poetry which invite you on a human journey. A journey through looks and silence, in all their splendor and complexity.

 

In 2014, Jeremy received first place at the Paris Photography Prize in the “Book proposal” category with his series “Border of Faith” taken on the banks of the Jordan River on Epiphany Day.

 

Jeremy offers you today his latest series “Lux in silentio” (silent light).

 

Lux in silentio is the inspiration of silence, calm light and solitary shadow.  

 

An intimate series, in praise of absence, whose characters vacillating between shadow and light, walk on the fragile balance of the broken mirror.
