BURN THE BEACH / L´ille Rousse


L´ille Rousse is a village in the North of Corsica with very long beautiful beaches, that are unfortunately filled up with too many tourists in the high season. But something else attracts my attention, a burned down beach restaurant. When I ask locals what happened,  I hear words like, mafia, drugs, concurrence between the restaurants. I find the clash between beach and burn visually so interesting, that I decide to work with it. But I didn´t expect, that I would get the attention of many tourists with this decision. When I reinstall a scene i have seen just a few meters across “the crime scene”, of two women pumping up an air mattress, people start screaming at me. They tell me that it´s tasteless to take photos infront of that “drama”. The next day, the city cleaned everything up, but I conserved it.
