Antibes Sails 2024

Antibes, 1 June 2024

Sails of Antibes... The wind blows, freedom flies, the lyre vibrates, a mad race intoxicates those who seek life.

Departure of the old moving ships. Those with their feet in the water have their feet firmly on the ground! Sails, halyards, bows, crews... What coordination, complementarity and seriousness for an aerial, solar, lunar, marine journey! Fresh hair, warm skin, hearts beating in the flapping sails. Paradise at sea is there, on and under the light mass that rises towards the essence of the world, the original lapping, the universal substance.

Nothing exists anymore, except... wings! Farewell to offices, papers, screens, shoes, restaurants... Hands are on edge from washed-out woods and fiery bronzes. Flaming pupils plunge into the nautical liquid, cutting the cord that binds them to immobility. The deep element waits, calls, challenges...

Feu ! …

Jubilation! Excitement! Focus! Life!

Leaving the port. The man has a date with his latitude...
