title
LE MONT FUJI
Between claim, denunciation, eroticism and performance, the nude in situ is for them a pretext for creation. Thus, their work is nourished at all times, and in all situations.
Their first photographic work began in 2018, around the body before, during or after sex. It's all about enjoyment and pleasure. In 2020, they are putting together their first exhibition, in two chapters: Secret, and Censored.
During the same period, they explore The art of street Sex, a work conceived like a secret photographic performance inside the city. They seek to reveal our animality, to represent our impulses where they can wake up.
While the pandemic reminds them of a cataclysm already in progress, they are working on a new project on an ecological scale, and take pictures of urban or natural landscapes that evoke a “Kataclysm”. Here too, the body is naked, showing all its fragility, and the fragility of our species. Between photo-reportage and anticipation, Les Chevaliers Photographe have one goal: to alert, to alarm, since it is always necessary.

entry description
Us, and her. Layed on the back. Relaxed. The light is just wonderful, perfect. The atmosphere is full of tenderness. I see her breast. To me and to him as well, it is obvious we need to take this picture. He just stands up, he grabs the camera, asks me to move. He's got it. The picture of that moment. Precisely.about the photographer

Female, male, the photographed bodies tell the story of Les Chevaliers, and may evoke a thousand stories to those who look at their pictures...Between claim, denunciation, eroticism and performance, the nude in situ is for them a pretext for creation.
