“When we were young there were two things we
wanted to do. One was to find a place with no before or
after, a place where nothing ever happens, just like heaven.
The second thing was to discover a tasty and lasting
flavour, high, sweet and shocking red, like a cherry on top,
and to celebrate with it the ultimate toast.
Now we are grown up, and a third concern frightens
us: to leave the freckles behind and search in your eyes
the idea of you.
Oh, we are such a bore.”
Chus & Greg
A world tour of youth and teenagers through
photography and video. A unique style, a reflection
about youth that passes by very quickly. Too quickly.
Chus & Greg have been working together over
the past 10 years on both commissions and personal
projects. They have always shared a common obsession
for fan movements, coming-of-age and teenage pop
culture. Their perspective plays with the codes of fashion
and documentary photography, always blurring the
lines. Chus & Greg imagery verges on the dreamlike and
the ghostly, the realness and the unreal. Their approach
to image is ethereal and hazy, almost abstract, both
in their treatment of colours and shapes as in their unique
way of tackling any subject they capture with their camera.
