Rocheblave

The Crystal Ship 2022

Based on a house backyard in St.Roch (New Orleans, LA), a neighbourhood in which the Kathrina can still be noticed even after more than a decade an half. Houses were rebuilt but many places, families and souls struggle with poverty. Even in this specific background the image can be interpreted as a universal reality common to all: a day-to-day scene in a residential neighborhood in which a young man reincarnates the mundane, the temporary and the changeable as opossed of a more rigid and bounded reality that we take for granted and that is susceptible to change at any time in a matter of seconds. The line between what remains the same and what changes fades as we delve into more absolute and universal values.
