Lucie & Simon

Who could resist these eerie and beautiful visual slices of earth and it's few remaining inhabitants. Lucie (French) and Simon (German) bring together a unique and yet familiar feeling of desertion and abandonment to their images of life on planet Earth. Saturated in colour and texture you can wade through, they use scale and perspective to make you feel overwhelmed by your surroundings. From wild countryside to concrete jungle, the figure is always singular even when sleeping in bed. In "Scenes of Life" the focus is on the human presence as we observe how still life can be. While in "Earth Vision" we take the perspective of an outsider, exploring the planet's landscape, from the metropolis to the great outdoors as it's inhabitants sleep. Both bodies of work are beautifully crafted like a renaissance painting and executed with a calm of knowing their vision and achieving it.
