I’m delighted to invite you to this solo exhibition at Galerie Patrick Reygade<\/strong> in Marseille, opening<\/strong> on Thursday May 7<\/strong> at 6.30pm<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photographic story [\u30e9\u30c3\u30bb\u30e9\u30fc\u3001\u30e9\u30c3\u30bb\u30e9\u30fc\uff01]<\/strong>, shot in T\u014dky\u014d in October 2023, will be presented for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the basement of the gallery, my work on light writing will also be exhibited, along with a photographic installation and a Sound design by Puzzle Persos<\/strong>, for an immersive experience.

Nearly eighty photographs, including some in large portfolios, will be unveiled for this major event in my career as a photographer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pronounce: Lass\u00e8laa, Lass\u00e8laa! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This cry repeated in unison \u30e9\u30c3\u30bb\u30e9\u30fc\u3001\u30e9\u30c3\u30bb\u30e9\u30fc\uff01 by the costumed dancers (haneto \u8df3\u4eba), who march to the rhythm of the drummers (taiko \u592a\u9f13) and those huge, shimmering floats, sustains the momentum, brings the bodies together, and lifts the voices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It belongs to the very breath of the Nebuta Matsuri \u306d\u3076\u305f\u796d, where clamor accompanies the movement of luminous figures in the night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Derived from the Tsugaru dialect \u6d25\u8efd\u5f01, it is said to mean “Give, Give \u51fa\u305b\u3001\u51fa\u305b” to request candles, sake and other provisions from the chariot bearers (hikite \u66f3\u304d\u624b) of Nebuta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The song and rhythm have preserved the trace of an ancient exhortation; an invitation to join in the enthusiasm of the Nebuta festival, uniting dancers and spectators in a common celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other hypotheses are also likely, but over time the literal meaning has faded, leaving only the collective pulse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In these photographs, this rhythm becomes image. Shapes unfold, fragment and recompose themselves in the flow of gesture and light. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The title, written in Japanese, retains an element of mystery for this exhibition, like a distant echo of the festival. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s not so much a question of translating the oral expression as of feeling the vibration that emanates from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u30e9\u30c3\u30bb\u30e9\u30fc\u3001\u30e9\u30c3\u30bb\u30e9\u30fc thus evokes shared energy, the repetition that carries movement, the presence of a living memory transmitted through the voice. A simple exclamation turned cadenza, where tradition is transformed into sensitive, playful choreography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About this photo story<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These images were born in the heart of Nakano’s Nebuta Matsuri, in T\u014dky\u014d, in October 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aomori Nebuta Matsuri is a major festival in the T\u014dhoku region, designated as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.  
As a sign of support for this region of northeastern Japan, which was devastated by the great earthquake of 2011, Nakano City Hall has organized its own festival since 2012 under the name “Nakano Festival to Support T\u014dhoku”, where the Nebuta Matsuri takes place every October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
