The Infrared Journey
The Red Carpet of Paris
2023
A closer look at the work
From an elevated viewpoint, a vivid red axis cuts through densely built Paris. The rectangular spaces of the Champ de Mars draw the eye backwards, reinforced by parallel rows of trees. A heavy, greenish sky hangs over grey rooftops. A dark tower marks the distance, interrupting the city’s horizontal spread.
The carpet named in the title emerges from a spatial order made particularly visible through colour. Paths, open spaces and vegetation become elements of a large arrangement. Yet the densely varied buildings resist this strict centre. The photograph brings together the planned overview of an urban axis and the multiplicity of a city that exceeds that order.
