LE HAVRE celebration of the 500th anniversary 2017, photographed in 2019.
In Juli 2019 I shot a highkey series at the beach of Le Havre and tried to give this place my own interpretation.
The graphic artist Karel Martens wrote about this project:
“For the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the city,
I proposed the plan to give [the cabins] a colorful expression:
stripes of 10 different colors and of 6 different widths
will be painted on the visible faces of the cabins.
I see it as a kind of choreography,
a composition of the whole panorama,
with all the cabins.
A unity through diversity.”
