EVENT DESCRIPTION
La Galerie is delighted to present a solo exhibition Inside Views with French photographer Floriane de Lassée. The show will feature a series of photographs made between 2004 and 2011 that captures nocturnal images which draw a mysterious and melancholic portrait of people living in megacities. De Lassée captures these scenes with a distinct use of light and shadow, evoking a sense of isolation and introspection.
Inside Views is a masterful photographic series crafted by the visionary artist Floriane de Lassée, spanning the cosmopolitan cities of New York, Paris, Shanghai, Istanbul, Tokyo, Las Vegas, Moscow, and Macau.
From the bustling streets of New York to the vibrant ambiance of Tokyo and the rich cultural tapestry of Istanbul, metropolitan cities have long served as an inexhaustible source of inspiration for photographers. De Lassée’s evocative lens takes us on a breath-taking tour of these urban landscapes, capturing the city’s nocturnal allure through the prism of single characters, predominantly female, viewed from the windows of towering edifices. Each image is a meticulously crafted diptych, devoid of any digital manipulation, and created using a view camera, showcasing the artist’s mastery of her craft. This awe-inspiring series was deemed worthy of a dedicated monograph, published by the esteemed Nazraeli Press, further cementing its place as a timeless work of art.
