South

Les clichés de Mark Steinmetz nous emmènent loin. Jusque dans ce sud des États-Unis, où les petites villes du Kentucky, du Tennessee ou du Mississippi semblent surgies d’un autre monde. Dans le noir et blanc dramatique des photographies, on lit des histoires. Une mélancolie dans le regard de cette jeune fille allongée sur le capot d’une voiture, une langueur des corps, comme coincés dans une lourde torpeur. Il y a ces éclairs qui subjuguent, éclairant une longue route déserte à travers les nuages menaçants, et il nous semble sentir cette humidité qui colle à la peau, cette lassitude poétique des habitants, comme des témoignages d’une autre vie, d’un autre temps.

Mark Steinmetz takes us on a trip to the South-East of the United States. His black and white pictures translate well the melancholy, the sleepiness of those small southern cities.
