Description
This is a 39.5 x 59 inches archival giclée black and white print on archival exhibition paper. It is part of a limited edition of 6 plus 2 AP. This is print 2 of 6. Signed and numbered in the back.
It shows a woman looking straight into the camera from the window of one of the New Orleans historic street cars. An edition of 10 and an edition of 20, smaller in size, are also available.

Fievet's fascination with vibrant urban life led him to explore the city of New Orleans several times. This photograph is part of a series documenting the "life" of the four streetcar lines that operate in the city. It is a portrait of the historic vehicle as well as its daily inhabitants, often taken as the car is moving, to underline the transient nature of the subject. Two smaller editions are available. An 11 x 14 inches, edition of 20. And a 17 x 22 inches, edition of 10.

Jean-Luc Fievet is best known for his black and white photographs portraying people and everyday street life. His work is marked by both an expressionistic approach for the close-up portraits, as well as a documentary freshness for the street scenes portraying the every-day life of different urban realities.
Jean-Luc’s journey into photography began by recording intimate moments of his family and the families of close friends. When he moved to Paris he discovered a new world that he adopted immediately, the city. His work then led him to New York, where he settled permanently. He states: “Photography for me is a constant exploration of powerful emotions, of sensuality, of the reality around me and the dreams within.”
