Laurent Dequick once again moves away from the traditional representation that we have of the landscapes around us in order to present a highly poetic vision that borrows from the Cubist movement. On his numerous escapades all over the world, he has captured all kinds of monuments, venues, and sites that are the incontestable witnesses of history and of the radiating influence of the countries that he travels through. This photograph belongs to the series that he dedicated to the United States, revealing a richly diverse country-continent. The urban freneticism and hyperactivity that he likes to represent are expressed by a condensation of shooting angles, which draw the spectator's eye. Through this interplay of superpositions, Laurent Dequick notably evokes Marcel Duchamp's Nude Descending a Staircase in which the expressiveness of the lines reveals the movement within the painting.
