The point of view from the ceiling or the sky literally compresses the space of the image into a surface. The gaze sticks like a suction pad; in the presentation of images on the exhibition wall, which tips forty-five additional degrees the tables, beds, meadow, swimming pool, everything that the image contains starts sliding at the same time as the people the image has focused on. The law of gravity pulls the characters and props towards the depths(…). - Klaus Honnef
Lucie and Simon are self-taught artists from Paris. I'm in awe how top view can be this beautiful. Everything becomes an expanse, yet there's so much depth all at the same time. They also made a series of photographs on the busiest corners of the world sans the crowd - Silent World. Haunting.
