Dubbed ‘La Línea Roja’ (The Red Line), these images you are seeing are not post-produced 3D digital additions – they are real light installations by Paris-based Nicolas Rivals.

“A red line woven over a journey through Spain, to connect Man with nature.
A red line to fix a moment of poetry, the time of a night. Unreal scenes that nevertheless existed to better disappear in the morning.
An installation deposited as a proposition to the natural world.
A luminous harmony between will and chance.
Between homage and sacrilege.
Between the beautiful and the strange.
An aesthetic research around forms dialoguing with a nature indifferent to symmetry.”

Rivals is a young French photographer and member of the Prisme Noir collective. A graduate of ETPA in 2013, his captivating work is a combination of visual art and staged photography reflecting on Man’s relationship with the World. In an almost obsessional desire for rigour and control, Rivals explores the possibilities for the expressive potential of his photographs without any formal limits. We salute him.
