Life of Gwada
How many subjects, bodies, faces, landscapes, situations I missed during my seven days in Guadeloupe. How many of them I tried to capture while driving around with the friends of Île du Monde on the whirling roads of Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre. Time’s up, looking forward for my return to you, Gwada. Many thanks to Josè, Stephanie, Daniel and his family for the exciting atmosphere during our stay on Guadeloupe.

Funerary art, wall art, urban art. Every color gradient fits wall cracks, houses , graves. Sometimes, reality bends with fantasy in Guadeloupe

The East side of Pointe-à-Pitre likely had a gorgeous past. Unluckily, grants are not sufficient today for the recover and renovation of its French colonial style. In the meantime, colorful design and graffiti decorate almost every wall of the city, up to the red-light district. Waiting for a new Renaissance.
