The world within - PBF05 / Frédéric Stucin
21 January - 27 March 2021
March 17, 2020: 1st day of confinement. Having lived in Paris for the past 20 years, Frédéric Stucin as a street photographer decided to explore his city at night during the lockdown.
Thanks to his press card, he can go outside to take pictures. Like an empty film set, the French capital comes across as distant and false, yet intimate. His project forces him to look at the city through different eyes and to rediscover it. In doing so, he also immortalises a unique time in our lives; a period during which the endless hustle and bustle of the city were put on pause.
Frédéric Stucin has been granted the “Leica Coup de Coeur” by the jury members.
