LE SUD
FRENCH COWBOY “LE SUD” , IRK GALERIE, ARLES – Entering Le Sud is like walking down a fresh path, your body alive with a sense of the world around you. Feeling the weight of the summer heat, the cooling breeze against your skin, hearing the brief rustle of grass mixed with the sound of cicadas. Or catching a glimpse of an unknown face in a passing doorway, or perhaps a better description is that of a hand against your face, the sight of a lover walking through the room their body glistening in the morning light as it moves past a window framing the countryside, your body seeped in the relaxation of a vacation well earned, every sense aware after an intimate morning. And then there is the light, it is always the light, illuminating each subject with energy and emotion, sometimes so close that you can almost touch it, other times farther away, yet always beyond your reach. In their book and exhibition, Le Sud, Paris based collaborative French Cowboy bring us into this land, one where David Lynch might play, filled with questions, not all answered which is one of the collection's great delights.
