Primates by Ruben Brulat
“His [Brulat’s] series of photos entitled “Primates” contrast his fragile, naked body with the silence that surrounds it, a silence emanating from harsh concrete or inhospitable glaciers. He shows the human being with no mask or form of protection, alone and naked, in a place he knows no one will disturb him, in order to test himself, to see if the city, ice, darkness and man have anything in common. As a living being, he talks to us through his naked body, telling us that despite it all, we are here, alone and fragile; but, as tiny as we are, we are life itself and that can be observed anywhere, from any corner of the revolting, depressing city to amongst depths of snow or on top of the most remote rocks.”

French photographer Xavier Lucchesi has created the series ‘radio portraits’ or ‘interior landscape’ in which all of the images have been captured with a medical scanner. In this way the artist sees, the ‘internal journey of self’. Lucchesi first has the subject’s image captured in an advanced X-ray machine either pictured by themselves or with a large or small object clutched to their figure. After the medical scan has been completed, the image is enhanced by Lucchesi digitally by the addition of color, highlighting of certain shapes or organs only visible to the human eye with the utilization of this photographic technology.
