> DESCRIPTION

Join us at Carte Blanche on Friday April 20th, 6pm to 9pm to celebrate the opening of Carte Blanche new show: This is your world.

‘This is your world’ takes us on a poetic journey from the innocence of childhood to the mystery of growing up as a woman. Inspired by French songwriter Emilie Simon’s universe, the images of ‘This is your world’ mirror Emilie’s distinctively soft, childlike voice and the dreamlike experience of a little girl and a big machine.
Featuring photographs by four European women, Carte Blanche’s new exhibition creates an ephemeral world. It explores the spirit of dreams through images that refuse to give in to reality. From fairy tales and suspended moments appear memories, desires, motives and uncertainties of four unique and feminine minds. From sweet washed-out colors to aging black and white tones, Saya Chontang, Julie Cerise, Aela Labbe and Deborah Parkin have distinct photographic styles, but they have in common a unique ability to read women’s minds.
Their photos offer an intangible vision of a romantic world. Neither fiction nor reality, they reveal human beauty. They keep the essence of past memories and the hopes of a future where everything is possible alive. This is their world, this is ours.

In partnership with Lili Merveille, KATE ELLEN METALS and its next-door neighbor The Detox Market, Carte Blanche creates a one evening pop-up show and takes you on a dreamlike journey through art and fashion.
Celebrating beauty and femininity, you’ll be able to treat yourself with exciting designer accessories and jewelry, free massages and free make-up makeover while enjoying amazing photography.
